1/2 teaspoon black pepper, or as needed.

1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes.
05 -
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano.
06 -
1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder.
07 -
1/2 teaspoon of salt (split).
08 -
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder.
09 -
2 tablespoons of butter.
10 -
1 small shallot, chopped fine.
11 -
1 minced garlic clove.
12 -
1/4 cup of dry white wine.
13 -
1 cup of chicken stock.
14 -
5.2 ounces of softened Boursin cheese.
15 -
1/2 cup of half-and-half cream.
16 -
1/3 cup of parmesan cheese, shredded.
17 -
A couple of fresh thyme sprigs.
18 -
2 teaspoons of parsley (dried).
# Instructions:
01 -
Sprinkle the chicken breasts with mustard, oregano, parsley, garlic powder, and half of the salt. Add pepper to taste.
02 -
Warm up the avocado oil in a big skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken on both sides, about 3-5 minutes each, until cooked. Set aside on a plate.
03 -
Use the same pan to melt butter. Cook the garlic and shallots until soft and see-through, around 3 minutes. Pour in the wine and stir up all the stuck bits from the pan. Let it reduce by half.
04 -
Mix in chicken broth and melt the Boursin cheese. Stir until the sauce gets creamy and thick. Add the parmesan, dried parsley, thyme, and half-and-half. Let it cook for about 5 minutes.
05 -
Place the chicken back into the skillet, letting it heat up in the sauce. Add extra salt or pepper if needed.
# Notes:
01 -
This sauce is also awesome on fish or steak.
02 -
Pick a dry white wine you'd want to drink on its own.
