Ingredients
  

  • 2 chicken breasts large
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup Flour for dredging
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter for searing
  • 2 tablespoons butter for the sauce base
  • 1/3 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

Method
 

  1. Cut chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create four thinner cutlets.
  2. Generously sprinkle chicken with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Thoroughly coat each piece in flour, shaking off any excess.
  3. Heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer chicken to a plate and set aside.
  4. Remove the pan from the heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, chicken broth, Dijon mustard, and honey to the skillet.
  5. Return the pan to medium heat. Stir continuously until the mustard and honey dissolve into the broth and the butter melts.
  6. Stir in the heavy cream. Once the sauce is bubbling, return the cooked chicken and any plate juices to the pan.
  7. Simmer for 5 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened to your liking.

Notes

Ingredient Swap: I've definitely swapped out the chicken breasts for boneless, skinless chicken thighs when I wanted a richer, more forgiving cut; they cook up beautifully here, just
