Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
For the Honey Mustard Sauce:
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
For Garnish:
- Fresh parsley, finely chopped
For the Creamy Corn (side dish):
- 2 cups corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen)
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
Preparing the Chicken:
- Season the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Making the Honey Mustard Sauce:
- Combine Ingredients: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Prepare Sauce: Add honey, Dijon mustard, and apple cider vinegar to the skillet. Whisk until well combined and the sauce is heated through, allowing it to simmer for a couple of minutes to thicken slightly.
- Coat the Chicken: Return the chicken to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the chicken to coat thoroughly. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to ensure the chicken is well-coated and heated through.
Preparing the Creamy Corn:
- Cook Corn: In another pan, melt butter over medium heat. Add corn kernels and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Creamy Mixture: Add heavy cream, salt, and pepper to the corn. Stir and cook for an additional 5 minutes until the mixture is creamy.
Serving:
- Plate the Dish: Serve the honey mustard chicken on a plate, drizzle with the remaining honey mustard sauce from the pan, and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
- Add Side Dish: Serve alongside the creamy corn.
Conclusion:
This honey mustard chicken recipe is a wonderful blend of sweet and tangy flavors, which pairs perfectly with the mild creaminess of the corn. It’s a dish that’s both simple enough for a weeknight dinner and elegant enough for entertaining guests. Enjoy your meal preparation and the delightful combination of flavors!
