Ingredients
2 tbsp. olive oil
2 lb. chicken breasts (You can use thighs and drumsticks)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 shallots, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 cup chicken stock
1/4 cup whole grain mustard
1 tbsp. finely chopped thyme

- Transfer chicken to a plate; set aside.
- Add shallots and garlic to pan, cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 3-5 minutes.
- Add wine, stock, mustard, and thyme; bring to a boil. Return chicken to the pan with any juices, cover with a lid, and transfer to the oven.
