This is a recipe that has been on my blog for about a year now, and it needed some serious TLC. It was good before, but this is a much better version of it. Juicy BBQ’D chicken with a white wine dijon sauce. Make this alcohol free by using low sodium chicken stock in place of wine. Did I mention that this is a super quick cooking meal? It is!

Ingredients: (serves 2)

• 2 6-8oz chicken breasts, pounded to 1/2″ thick
• fresh ground sea salt
• fresh ground pepper
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 2 tbsp parsley, rough chopped (optional.)

For the sauce:

• 1 TBSP EVOO
• 1/2 white or yellow onion, small dice
• 3 large cloves garlic, minced
• 1c of your favourite white wine
• 1 heaping TBSP dijon mustard
• 1 heaping TBSP grainy dijon mustard
• 1 tbsp butter
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 1/2 tbsp corn starch dissolved in 2 tbsp cold water

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven or outdoor grill. (oven to 425.)
2. In a medium skillet over medium heat, add 1 tbsp EVOO. Once the oil is hot, add your onions and brown them. Once your onions are browned, add your garlic, salt and pepper.
3. Once your garlic is fragrant (1-2 min) deglaze your skillet with your white wine, stirring the mixture. Let the liquid reduce a little.
4. Add in your dijon mustards (both kinds! if you only have one, then thats fine. add 2 tbsp of one kind.) and add in your butter. Once mixed, add in your cornstarch dissolved in water, and turn your heat down to low.
5.  Season your chicken breasts on both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Place on your BBQ on a medium heat. Because the chicken is pounded nice and thin, it will take literally only minutes to cook. Cook for a few minutes on one side, and then flip and cook for another 5 minutes or so. I suggest using a meat thermometer and checking the internal temp of the chicken (165.)
6. if you’re using the oven – season your chicken on both sides with salt, pepper and garlic powder. in a skillet on just over medium heat, add EVOO. Once your oil is hot, add your chicken. Brown it on both sides. Throw it into the 425 oven for 10-15 minutes.
7. remove chicken from the grill and top with your dijon sauce. Sprinkle some fresh parsley over it if you like!
