How to Make This Irresistible Dish
- Sauté the Chicken – Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then cook them in the skillet until golden brown and cooked through (about 6-7 minutes per side, depending on thickness). Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
- Sauté the Aromatics – In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until softened and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
- Create the Sauce – Pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine with the onions and garlic. Add the Parmesan cheese, Dijon mustard, and thyme. Stir until the sauce thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
- Combine Chicken and Sauce – Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over it. Let everything simmer together for another 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Final Touch – Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
- Serve – Plate the chicken with the creamy sauce poured over the top. Serve alongside your favorite side dish—rice, mashed potatoes, or a green veggie work perfectly.
Why It’s a Winner Every Time
- Creamy, Flavorful Sauce – The rich cream, tangy mustard, and nutty Parmesan create a sauce that’s pure comfort in every bite.
- Tender Chicken – The chicken is juicy and perfectly cooked, soaked in that luscious sauce.
- Simple Yet Elegant – It’s an easy-to-make meal that looks and tastes like it belongs in a five-star restaurant, making it perfect for any occasion.
Tips for Success
- Adjust the Mustard – If your husband loves a little extra tang, feel free to add more Dijon mustard to the sauce.
- Make It a Full Meal – Serve this with a side of roasted vegetables, buttery mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad to complete the meal.
- Use Chicken Thighs for Extra Juiciness – If you prefer dark meat, chicken thighs are a great alternative and will stay extra juicy.
