Creamy Honey Mustard Chicken Thighs

Ingredients:

6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup chicken broth

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon whole grain mustard

Fresh thyme, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

 

Prep the Chicken:

Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper on both sides.

Brown the Chicken:

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the chicken thighs and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and nearly cooked through.

Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Make the Sauce:

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Stir in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Whisk in the heavy cream, honey, Dijon mustard, and whole grain mustard. Bring to a simmer.

Cook the Chicken in Sauce:

Return the chicken thighs to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them.

Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce has thickened.

Garnish and Serve:

Sprinkle chopped fresh thyme over the chicken before serving.

Serve hot, ideally with a side of steamed vegetables or over mashed potatoes to soak up the delicious sauce.
