Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cups chicken broth
- 0.5 cups heavy cream
- 1 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin, about 1/2 inch thick.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
Step 3
In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Step 5
Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Let the broth simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
Step 6
Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream and Dijon mustard, whisking until the sauce is smooth. Allow the sauce to simmer for 3-4 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Step 7
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for an additional 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Step 8
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy with rice, mashed potatoes, or steamed vegetables for a complete meal!
