This easy, one-pan chicken dijonnaise comes together in about 25 minutes making it perfect for a busy weeknight or any night when you want something special without a lot of work.
Boneless chicken breasts coated in flour are pan-fried in butter until cooked through. The flour forms a crunchy, golden-brown coating on the outside that is positively delicious. The chicken is removed and a sauce is made with the buttery drippings left in the bottom of the pan.
Heavy whipping cream, white wine(or chicken broth) and Dijon mustard plus a few chopped green onions make up the sauce that comes together in under five minutes.
It’s super creamy with a hint of mustard that isn’t overpowering in the least. Even if you don’t like mustard, chances are you’ll like this sauce. . .
