Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Whole grain mustard
- 1 tablespoon Yellow mustard
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 0.25 cup Chicken stock
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Butter, unsalted
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board and pat them dry with paper towels. Brush both sides of each chicken breast with olive oil.
Season the chicken evenly with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Set aside while preheating the grill.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375-400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Place the seasoned chicken breasts onto the hot grill. Cook for 6-8 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 6-8 minutes on the other side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let rest under foil for 5 minutes.
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the three-mustard sauce. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until foamy.
Add the Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, and yellow mustard to the saucepan. Stir well to combine and cook for 1-2 minutes to develop the flavors.
Pour in the heavy cream and chicken stock, whisking continuously until smooth. Simmer the sauce for about 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.
Add the honey to the sauce and stir to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Remove the sauce from heat and cover to keep warm until ready to serve.
Plate the grilled chicken breasts and spoon the warm three-mustard sauce generously over the top. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
