Can I double this recipe?

You can double this recipe if you have a large family and want to make sure each person gets enough chicken.

What can I use instead of heavy cream?

If you do not have heavy cream, combine milk with butter to create a homemade heavy cream. You can also use evaporated milk with butter or half-and-half to create a texture and taste that is a lot like heavy cream.

What sides go with rosemary chicken?

Several sides taste great with the Creamy Rosemary Chicken. You can prepare a side of egg noodles to go with the chicken, adding a bit of the sauce from the chicken on top of the noodles for more flavor.

If you do not want to have noodles, consider making mashed potatoes or a baked potato to eat with the chicken.

You can also serve this chicken with any of your favorite vegetables, such as carrots or broccoli.

Ingredients

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons butter divided
  • cup diced shallots
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
  • ½ cup white wine or low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup low sodium chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Halve each chicken breast lengthwise to create 4 even-sized pieces.

    2 boneless skinless chicken breasts

  • Whisk together the flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Dredge both sides of the chicken in the flour mixture. Set aside.

    ¼ cup all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper

  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add in the chicken and sear on both sides until golden. Remove from the pan and set aside.

    4 tablespoons butter

  • Add in the remaining butter, shallot, and rosemary. Saute until the shallots soften.

    4 tablespoons butter, ⅓ cup diced shallots, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary

  • Add in the wine, and cook until evaporated, scraping the brown bits from the bottom of the pan.

    ½ cup white wine

  • Add in the chicken broth, mustard, heavy cream, salt and pepper.

    1 cup low sodium chicken broth, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, ½ cup heavy cream, salt and pepper

  • Stir to combine and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens. Add the chicken back into the skillet. Cook, until the sauce thickens and the chicken is warmed through. When the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165℉ it is fully cooked.

Notes

  • You can use chicken thighs in place of the breasts. Thighs take longer to cook, so adjust cooking time accordingly.
  • Double the chicken for a larger meal! You may need to sear in batches.
  • You can use half and half in place of the heavy cream.

Storage: Store creamy rosemary chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days, or freeze for 3 months.

    Dying to try this for Easter dinner! Is there any way I can do this in a crock pot?

      Hi, Paula! You won’t be able to bread the chicken in the flour, salt, and pepper mixture, but you could make this in a crockpot! Add everything (except the flour and heavy cream) to a crockpot and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8 hours. Stir in the cream at the end!
