Skillet Chicken with Mushroom–Dijon Pan Sauce + Roasted Brussels Sprouts (Serves 2)

Fast, cozy skillet dinner using sale chicken breast: a creamy Dijon-pan sauce (no wine) with sautéed mushrooms and a side of roasted Brussels sprouts—very different from your recent pork tenderloin + apple-cider sauce and steak dishes.

Ingredients

  • Simple Truth® Natural Boneless Skinless Fresh Chicken Breast (Family Pack BIG DEAL!) 1 lb (2 cutlets or 2 small breasts, pounded thin) $5.49/lb (sale)
  • Simple Truth Organic® Whole Baby Bella Mushrooms 8 oz, sliced $4.49
  • Brussels Sprouts 1 lb, halved $3.99/lb
  • Simple Truth Organic® Garlic Bulbs 3 cloves, minced (divided) $2.79
  • Private Selection® Peruvian Gold Sweet Onion (3 lb bag) 1/2 medium onion, thinly sliced $4.99 (sale)
  • Olive oil 2 tbsp, divided
  • Butter 1 tbsp (optional but tasty)
  • Chicken broth (or water) 1/2 cup
  • Dijon mustard 1 1/2 tbsp
  • Plain yogurt or sour cream 2 tbsp (to finish sauce; optional)
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Roast Brussels (oven): Heat oven to 425°F. Toss halved Brussels sprouts with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 minced garlic clove, salt, and pepper. Roast 18–22 minutes, stirring once, until browned and tender.
  2. Cook chicken (stove): Pat chicken dry; season well with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high with 1 tbsp olive oil (and optional butter). Sear chicken 3–4 minutes per side (depending on thickness) until cooked through (165°F). Transfer to a plate.
  3. Sauté veg: In the same skillet, add onion and mushrooms with a pinch of salt. Cook 5–7 minutes until mushrooms brown. Add remaining garlic; cook 30 seconds.
  4. Make Dijon pan sauce: Pour in broth and scrape up browned bits. Simmer 2–3 minutes. Whisk in Dijon. Turn heat to low; stir in yogurt/sour cream if using (don’t boil once added). Taste and adjust salt/pepper.
  5. Finish & serve: Return chicken (and juices) to the skillet for 30–60 seconds to coat. Plate with roasted Brussels sprouts and spoon extra sauce over chicken.

Health notes: Protein-forward; keep it lighter by using half-and-half or extra broth instead of cream and serving with extra Brussels sprouts.

Drink pairing: WA Chardonnay or a crisp pilsner.
