-
Season the chicken breasts on both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
-
Heat a tablespoon of oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and saute for 4-8 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
-
Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the pan, along with the garlic. Saute for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
-
Add the chicken broth. Stir to remove any bits stuck to the bottom of the pan. Increase heat and simmer for 3-5 minutes, until the liquid is reduced by half.
-
Add the cream and thyme. (See notes for sweeter sauce.) Return to a gentle simmer. Gently simmer again for 2-3 minute, continuing to scrape any pieces from the bottom, just until the sauce thickens (it will reduce in volume). Stir in the mustard at the end and turn off heat.
-
To serve, pour the sauce over the chicken, or transfer the chicken back to the pan and cover in sauce.
Recipe Notes
Serving size: 1 large chicken breast with sauce
If you prefer a sweeter sauce, similar to honey mustard, you can add sweetener to taste in step 5. I like to use 1-2 tablespoons of powdered Besti.
