Ingredients

• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon butter
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage
• 2 teaspoons heavy cream
• ¼ cup pure maple syrup

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Melt butter over medium heat in a large, nonstick skillet. Sprinkle chicken evenly with salt and pepper; add to the hot pan. Cook until lightly browned, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from the pan; set aside and keep warm.

Step 2

Pour chicken broth into the skillet with maple syrup, Dijon mustard, sage, and thyme. Bring to a boil; cook until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in heavy cream and reduce heat to medium.

Step 3

Return chicken to the pan and let simmer until chicken is no longer pink in center and juices run clear, about 3 minutes, flipping once.
