Prepare Potatoes
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, mixed herbs, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
3. Spread the wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, turning halfway through the cooking time.
Cook Chicken
1. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent and softened, about 3 minutes.
3. Pour in the chicken broth to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Stir in the mustard cream, heavy cream, dried thyme, and honey (if using). Bring to a simmer and let the sauce thicken slightly, about 5 minutes.
4. Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the chicken is heated through and the sauce has thickened to your liking.
Serve
Plate the creamy mustard chicken alongside the herbed potato wedges. Drizzle any extra sauce over the chicken for added flavor. Serve immediately with a side of steamed green beans or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
