How to Make Chicken Moutarde
- In a bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard. Dredge chicken pieces (about 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs) in the flour mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- In a large skillet or Dutch oven, sauté 1/2 cup chopped onion and 4 ounces chopped bacon over medium heat until the bacon is crispy and the onion is softened. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Brown the chicken pieces in the same pan over medium-high heat until golden brown on all sides. Return the cooked onion and bacon to the pan. Pour in 1 cup chicken stock and 1/2 cup dry white wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc).
- Add 1 teaspoon dried thyme and 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary. Bring to a simmer, then cover the pan and cook for 75-90 minutes, or until the chicken is very tender and easily shreds with a fork.
- Carefully remove the chicken, bacon, and onions from the pan and place them in a warm oven to keep them from cooling. Discard the herbs.
- Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the pan juices to a boil, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup heavy cream and 2 tablespoons of the reserved flour mixture until smooth. Gradually whisk the cream mixture into the boiling pan juices. Reduce heat to low and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, without boiling, to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Pour the sauce over the chicken, bacon, and onions. Garnish with 2 tablespoons of freshly chopped parsley before serving.
