Description

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup Dijon mustard, divided
• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
• salt and pepper to taste
• 6 boneless skinless chicken thighs (or breasts), whichever is your favorite
• 6 sliced thick cut bacon, diced
• 1 cup dry white wine, I used Sauvignon Blanc
• 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
• 3 tablespoons heavy cream
• 6 sprigs fresh thyme

Directions

• Mix 1/2 cup of the dijon, the paprika, and the salt and pepper to taste in a shallow bowl. Stir to combine.
• Fully coat each chicken thigh in the mustard mixture. If using chicken thighs be sure to get in all the nooks and folds. Place the coated chicken in 2 large ziplock bags and place in the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours. (you can skip this step but the longer it marinates the better!)
• When ready to cook, remove the chicken from the fridge and set aside.
• Add the diced bacon to a large skillet over medium/high heat. Stir as it cooks, until fully crispy and done. I like mine extra crispy, but cook to your favorite level of doneness. Set aside and allow to drain on a paper towel. Leave the bacon grease in the skillet.
• Place the chicken in the empty pan and brown each side for 4-5 minutes. The chicken doesnt need to be all the way done. Remove from the pan and set aside with the bacon.
• Add the wine to the pan and scrape the bottom with a wooden spatula. Thats where all the good flavor lives!
• Whisk in the remaining dijon, the whole grain mustard, and the heavy cream. Add back in the chicken, bacon and toss in the fresh thyme.
• Reduce the heat to low and cook for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce is reduced to your liking.
• Serve and enjoy!
