Easy Maple Chicken (with Dijon Mustard)

Ingredients

• 3 large chicken breasts (cut in half horizontally)
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1/4 cup dijon mustard (or stone ground or spicy)
• 1/2 cup maple syrup
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• 1 1/2 tsp garlic (minced)
• 1/2 cup flour
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 4 tbsp butter

Instructions

1. 1

   Sprinkle each side of the chicken with kosher salt and allow to sit for 5 minutes.

2. 2

   While the chicken is sitting, combine the broth, mustard, syrup, thyme, and garlic.

3. 3

   Combine the flour and pepper in a flat dish. Coat each side of the chicken in flour and vigorously shake off the excess. The layer should be very thin.

4. 4

   In an electric skillet heated to 350° or skillet on the stove over medium heat, melt the butter. Cook the chicken on the first side until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.

5. 5

   Flip the chicken and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Add the maple sauce and simmer until the sauce has thickened into a glaze and the chicken is cooked through, 2-4 minutes.
