Stove Top Chicken in Mustard Sauce

Submitted by riffraff

"I got this recipe from a blog called Kalyn's Kitchen. I made it tonight and it is plate licking good. We felt the sauce was just perfect, not too much of anything. The sauce is a little thin but delicious. Hope you like it."

 

• Ready In: 35mins
• Ingredients: 10
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 1 -2 tablespoon olive oil (will depend on your pan)
• poultry seasoning (to season chicken before cooking)

• Sauce

• 1⁄4 cup mayonnaise (you can use light, but do not use fat free)
• 1⁄4 cup light sour cream
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1⁄2 teaspoon dry mustard
• 1⁄4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 3⁄4 cup chicken stock (can be canned)
• chopped parsley (to garnish) (optional)

directions

1. Cut slits across each chicken breast but not all the way through.
2. This is so the sauce penetrates the breast.
3. Season chicken with poultry seasoning on both sides.
4. Heat olive oil in large frying pan big enough to hold the chicken in a single layer.
5. Brown chicken well.
6. Combine and whisk all the sauce ingredients together.
7. When chicken is good and brown, lower heat and pour sauce over.
8. Simmer 20 minutes, being sure to keep heat at a very low simmer.
9. Serve with sauce and a bit of parsley over each breast.

This was wonderful! We both licked the plates when we were done. I added a bit of cayenne and did have to thicken the sauce a bit with cornstarch. Put it over pasta and had a bit of baked broccoli on the side - heaven! I've already passed this recipe on to all the folks at work. Definitely a keeper.

Awesome chicken dinner! But I have to tell you that I made a few changes....nothing drastic but I find it hard to leave a good recipe alone! Thought I had sour cream but didn't so I omitted that and added a bit of milk instead. We like a thicker sauce so I added a bit of cornstarch to thicken....and a few capers for more flavour! Yum....the sauce was lovely and a lovely consistency......served with chicken flavoured rice with mixed veggies and cashews......and carrots on the side. What a great meal.....hubby was almost licking the plate. He didn't say more than a few words during dinner as he wolfed it down.....I will make this again and again....but next time will be for guests ! Thanks so much for posting this winner!
