Ingredients
Scale
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 lb baby potatoes, halved
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp whole-grain mustard
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves (optional)
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper, then sear until golden, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove chicken and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt butter and add garlic; cook for 1 minute. Stir in chicken broth, heavy cream, Dijon mustard, and whole-grain mustard. Simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Add halved potatoes to the skillet, tossing to coat. Place chicken back into the skillet.
Transfer skillet to the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender.
Garnish with fresh thyme, if desired, and serve warm.
Notes
You can substitute baby potatoes with regular potatoes cut into small chunks.
Add vegetables like green beans or asparagus for a complete one-pan meal.
Use a cast-iron skillet for even cooking and easy oven transfer.
