Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 cups Cremini or button mushrooms, sliced
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon Whole-grain mustard
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear them for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and become golden brown.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic to the mushrooms and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Stir in the Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, heavy cream, and chicken broth. Whisk the mixture to combine and bring it to a gentle simmer.

Step 6

Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them into the mustard and mushroom sauce. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 7

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt or mustard if needed.

Step 8

Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve immediately with mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread for a complete meal.
