Savor tender chicken and crispy potatoes smothered in a creamy Dijon mustard sauce, perfect for a comforting and flavorful dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 3 cups baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Toss the halved baby potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, pepper, and half the thyme. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and remaining thyme.
  4. Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sear chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes per side until golden.
  5. Remove the skillet from heat. Add the Dijon mustard and heavy cream to the skillet, stirring to combine and create the sauce.
  6. Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning some sauce over the top. Add roasted potatoes around the chicken.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender.
  8. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired and serve warm.

Notes

For extra flavor, add a splash of white wine to the Dijon cream sauce before baking, or serve with a side of steamed green beans.
