Mustard
Mustard adds amazing flavour to a creamy sauce. If you’re hesitant, start with 1 tablespoon. Give it time to dissolve through the sauce, add the rest of your ingredients, then taste test. You may like it at this point and wish too leave it, or you can add the extra tablespoon for a deeper flavour.
What do you serve with Creamy Mustard Chicken Thighs?
You can also serve it with plain rice or noodles, or bread.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Use skinless, boneless chicken thighs for the best flavour and results. You can also use breasts if you wish.
Wash and Pat dry Chicken Thighs with paper.
Season chicken thighs with seasoning salt and pepper.
Chop an onion and 3.5 oz. (100 gr.) of celery.
Add to the skillet 2 tablespoons of olive oil and butter 1 1/2 tbsp. 30 gr.
Add chicken thighs and brown on both sides! You need your heat on medium-high and a good quality pan that the Chicken Thighs will not stick. Cook them in batches of two or three, depending on the size of your pan, to ensure they sear with crisp results. Transfer chicken to a plate.
Add to the skillet 1 1/2 tbsp. (30 gr.) of butter, choped onion and celery, and fry for 5 minutes, then add garlic and stir for 1 more minutes.
Now add half cup (100 ml.) wine! Letting the wine simmer and reduce at least to half allows the alcohol to evaporate and enhances the flavour and aroma of our sauce.
Add 1 cup (200 ml.) water or chicken stock, mustard 2 tsp. and dijon mustard 1 tsp.
Add 1 1/2 cup (300 ml.) Heavy cream.
Add chicken thighs, cover skillet and simmer for 10 minutes.
Sprinkle with parsley and done.
Creamy Mustard Chicken Thighs is Ready!
