Follow The Directions

01

Step

30 mins

In a glass bowl, whisk together the grainy mustard and honey. Add the chicken pieces and gently massage to coat thoroughly. Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.

02

Step

5 mins

Heat the olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened and translucent, approximately 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and 2 tablespoons of honey Dijon mustard. Season with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to medium and continue to sauté until the onion and garlic are lightly browned, about 3 to 4 minutes. If the mixture becomes too dry, add 1 tablespoon of water.

03

Step

4 mins

Add the marinated chicken to the skillet, along with the remaining 2 tablespoons of honey Dijon mustard. Stir well to combine. Cover the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center, about 7 to 10 minutes.

04

Step

7 mins

Uncover the skillet, increase the heat to medium-high, and allow the sauce to reduce and thicken until it reaches a creamy consistency, approximately 3 to 5 minutes.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of white wine vinegar to the sauce during the reduction process.
Serve this dish with steamed rice, quinoa, or your favorite roasted vegetables for a complete and satisfying meal.
