How to Make Poulet Dijon Dijon Chicken

  1. Pound 2-3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet.
  2. In a shallow dish, dredge chicken breasts in a mixture of 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown.
  4. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside, keeping warm.
  5. Add 1/2 cup dry white wine to the skillet and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom (this is deglazing!).
  6. Bring wine to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, until slightly reduced.
  7. Stir in 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard and 1 tablespoon of butter until melted and smooth.
  8. Pour in 3/4 cup heavy cream.
  9. Reduce heat to low, simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until sauce slightly thickens.
  10. Return chicken to the skillet, spooning sauce over the top to coat. Serve immediately.
