Creamy French Mustard Chicken for the Slow Cooker — Makes 4–6 servings
The recipe calls for four skinless, boneless chicken breasts.
Ingredients
Toss with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, season with salt and pepper to taste, and add 4 minced garlic cloves.
– 1/2 cup of whole grain mustard – 1 cup of chicken broth
1/4 cup of mustard mustard
– Half a cup of full-fat milk
— Half a cup of sour cream
– Chopped fresh thyme, 1 tablespoon – Chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon (plus additional for garnish)
How to Follow
1. Liberally sprinkle salt and pepper onto the chicken breasts.
2. Heat the olive oil in a big pan over medium heat. Brown the chicken breasts, two or three minutes each side. Place in a slow cooker when ready.
Third, sauté the minced garlic for a minute or two in the same pan, or until it begins to release its aroma. While scraping the pan for any browned parts, pour in the chicken broth and boil.
Pour the sauce over the chicken in the slow cooker after stirring in the whole grain mustard and Dijon mustard.
5. Simmer, covered, for four to five hours, or until chicken is cooked through and tender.
6. In a separate bowl, mix together the sour cream and heavy cream when the cooking time is nearly up. After carefully stirring, pour the mixture into the slow cooker.
7. Cook for another 20-30 minutes, then add the chopped thyme. Simmer until the sauce thickens and is hot.
8. To finish off the chicken, top it with a sprinkling of fresh parsley.
A lower-fat alternative would be to use Greek yogurt in place of the heavy cream and sour cream; however, be careful to whisk it in shortly before serving to prevent curdling.
– A If you’re cooking for someone who isn’t a big fan of mustard or has a mild taste, you may tone down the whole grain mustard to 1/3 cup.
– A An exquisite harmony may be achieved by incorporating a spoonful of honey into the sauce for an extra touch of sweetness. – Feel free to play around with other meats by substituting turkey cutlets or pork loin in this recipe.
– A Keep a close check on the chicken the first time you cook it in a slow cooker to make sure it doesn’t cook too long because slow cookers might differ. Our goal is to achieve a moist and delicate texture!
