How to Make Chicken With Blue Cheese
- Preheat grill or broiler to medium-high heat.
- Season 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total) generously with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
- In a bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, and 1 clove minced garlic. Marinate chicken in this mixture for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator).
- Grill or broil chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- While chicken cooks, prepare the sauce: In a small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup heavy cream over medium heat. Add a pinch of salt.
- Reduce heat to low. Add 4 oz crumbled blue cheese and stir until melted and smooth.
- Stir in 1 tbsp brandy (optional) and 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped. Continue to cook until sauce slightly thickens (about 2-3 minutes).
- Serve the grilled chicken immediately, topped generously with the creamy blue cheese sauce.
