Steps
Season the chicken breasts with seasoning salt (or salt and pepper), garlic powder, and fresh cracked pepper. Flip the chicken and season the other side generously.
Turn your pan on medium-high heat and drizzle with olive oil.
Add the chicken to the pan and sear until cooked through and golden brown on both sides. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the butter. Use a spatula or spoon to scrape up any of the browned bits (fond) from the bottom of the pan as the butter melts.
Add the flour to the melted butter. Stir constantly and let it cook for about one minute to remove the raw flour taste.
Add the fresh minced garlic to the pan and cook for about one minute until fragrant.
Whisk in the chicken broth, ensuring no lumps remain from the flour.
Add the Dijon mustard, onion powder, additional seasoning salt (or salt and pepper), and more cracked peppercorns. Stir to combine.
Pour in the heavy whipping cream and stir together. Bring the sauce to a light bubble.
Once the sauce is bubbling and slightly thickened, add the cooked chicken back into the pan.
Sprinkle fresh parsley on top before serving.
Notes
The author mentions this can also be made with breaded chicken if preferred. For the best flavor, use fresh cracked peppercorns rather than pre-ground black pepper.
