How to Make Rosemary Dijon Chicken

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Season chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total) with salt and pepper. Add to the skillet and brown on both sides for 3-5 minutes per side.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary (chopped), and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  4. Pour the orange juice mixture over the chicken in the skillet.
  5. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes, turning the chicken halfway through.
  6. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a serving dish. Increase the heat to medium-high.
  7. Boil the remaining sauce in the skillet for 1-2 minutes, or until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  8. Pour the thickened sauce over the chicken and serve immediately with rice or your preferred side dish.
