You can use smooth Dijon mustard instead of the grainy, but the grainy does add texture.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp grainy Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 8 skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 onions, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 3 carrots, thinly sliced diagonally
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp butter, softened

Preparation

In shallow bowl, combine 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the parsley, the Dijon mustard, grainy mustard, salt and pepper. One at a time, press chicken thighs in mixture, turning to coat.

In large nonstick skillet, heat half of the oil over medium-high heat; brown chicken, in batches and turning once. Transfer chicken to plate. Drain off fat in pan.

Add remaining oil to pan; fry onions, thyme and carrots over medium heat until softened, about 4 minutes. Add stock. Return chicken to skillet and bring to boil; cover and simmer over medium heat until juices run clear when chicken is pierced, about 40 minutes. With slotted spoon, transfer chicken, onions and carrots to platter; cover and keep warm.

In bowl, mash flour with butter; whisk into pan and boil over high heat, whisking, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Pour over chicken. Sprinkle with remaining parsley.
