If you get things organized, it comes together in less than 30 minutes, including the prep time. Start by mixing the sauce ingredients together: butter, Dijon mustard, garlic, thyme, and honey.
Prepare the broccoli florets and slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally. Be sure to season them well with salt and pepper.
Brown the chicken in a large skillet working in batches as needed.
When the chicken is almost done, pour in the white wine and add the broccoli. Cover with a lid and allow the broccoli to cook just till it is tender, but still bright green.
Uncover, then put dollops of the Honey Mustard Butter on each piece of chicken and on the broccoli. It will start to melt and create the sauce right in the pan!
How to serve Honey Mustard Chicken Skillet
One of the beauties of making dinner in one skillet is that you only dirty one dish! So I usually just put the skillet right on the table like that. This is a full meal for my husband and me, but if you feel the need for more, it would be delicious with steamed rice or roasted potatoes.
