3 Ingredient Chicken in Mustard Sauce

Dinner in a jiffy!

With my 3 ingredient chicken in mustard sauce, dinner is ready in a jiffy! I love eating an elaborate dinner but I don’t always enjoy making it as much. This meal feels like it took work but in reality it’s just a few minutes of cooking. Chicken, mustard and heavy cream. Could it get any easier? I don’t think so.

This meal is part of my 3 Ingredient Keto meal plan for beginners.

Chicken in Mustard Sauce

Why restrict yourself to mustard? This recipe is super easy to adapt to whatever you have lying around in your house actually. Got some of my left over Keto pesto maybe? Throw that in for a delicious creamy pesto sauce. Maybe you have some of my marinara sauce lying around? That will make a rich and creamy tomato sauce. The world is your oyster!!!

You can also use chicken breast instead or even pork chops. Just remember to pick a quick cooking cut of meat. This sauce will pair well with any protein to be honest. It’s actually great for steak even. Add some freshly crushed pepper and you’ve got a steak au piovre (steak in pepper sauce). Play around with it and share your ideas with me.

You can use wholegrain, Dijon or even your standard yellow mustard. Heavy cream can be replaced by coconut cream if you want to make it dairy free. You could also just use sour cream and in the worst case scenario skip the cream and just make the sauce using mustard and water.
