Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard (soy-free)
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
In a large oven-proof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the chicken broth, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice, whisking together.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, and stir in the heavy cream, incorporating it fully into the sauce.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning some sauce over each piece.
Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and let it sit for a couple of minutes.
Garnish with fresh thyme and parsley before serving.
Serve hot with your choice of sides such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
