Creamy Mustard Chicken

Savor the rich flavors of creamy mustard chicken, featuring tender chicken breasts sautéed with earthy mushrooms and a hint of tangy mustard. Ideal for a cozy weeknight dinner that feels special.

• 200 g mixed mushrooms
• 1 red onion
• 2 x 120g skinless chicken breasts
• 2 teaspoons wholegrain mustard
• 60 ml single cream
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 150 ml water

Method

1. 1

   Place a 30cm non-stick frying pan on a medium-high heat. Place all the mushrooms in the dry pan, tearing up any larger ones. Let them toast and get dark golden and nutty, tossing occasionally, while you peel and finely slice the red onion and slice the chicken breasts into 1cm-thick strips.

2. 2

   When the mushrooms look good, add the onion and chicken to the pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Cook for 5 minutes, tossing often, then add the mustard, cream and 150ml of water. Bring to the boil, then simmer until you’ve got a loose saucy consistency and the chicken is cooked through. Taste, season to perfection with sea salt and black pepper, and dish up.
