dm hart

  • 1 tbsp ground Dried tarragon
  • 1/4 Dry White Wine
  • 1 tbs Chives
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 tsp Ground Black Pepper
  • 20 0z boneless skinless chicken breasts (pound flat for even cooking)
  • 1/4 Low Sodium Chicken Broth (vegetable broth works too)
  • 1/3 cup Fat Free Half And Half
  • 2 shallots, minced
  • 2 tsp Olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Flat Leaf Parsley
  • 2 tbsp whole grain mustard (I prefer stone ground)
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  1. Season chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. 
  2. Heat a large skillet set over medium-high heat, add oil. When oil is shimmering, add chicken breasts to the skillet and cook until golden-brown, about 4 minutes on each side or until an inserted instant-read thermometer is at 165 degrees.
  3. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover with aluminum foil; set aside.
  4. Return the same skillet to the stove over medium heat and add shallots and garlic; cook until they are tender, about 2 minutes. 
  5. Add the white wine, chicken broth, and lemon juice, scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. 
  6. Bring the liquid to a boil and continue to cook until it has reduced by half. Reduce the heat to a simmer, and let it cool slightly then stir in the mustard and fresh herbs.
  7. Continue to cook on low heat and stir until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 3 minutes. 
  8. Stir in the cream. Be sure to let the sauce cool down before adding cream otherwise the cream can start to curd from high heat.
  9. Place the chicken breasts back into the skillet. Spoon sauce over each one; serve immediately.
