Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup fresh or frozen cherries, pitted
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh thyme or parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove chicken and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add cherries, honey, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, and chicken broth. Stir and cook for 5-7 minutes until the cherries break down and the sauce thickens slightly.
- Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning sauce over the top. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes to combine flavors.
- Garnish with fresh thyme or parsley before serving. Serve hot with your choice of sides.
Notes
For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a splash of balsamic vinegar to the sauce or serve with roasted vegetables and rice.
