paso a paso

Preparación

  1. Slice and season the chicken

    • Horizontally slice each chicken breast right through the centre to create four even-sized breasts.
    • Combine the smoked paprika, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, black pepper and dried thyme in a small bowl.
    • Sprinkle the seasoning mix evenly over both sides of each breast.
    Paso 1
  2. Fry the chicken

    • Place a large pan over medium-high heat and stir in the butter and olive oil.
    • Add the chicken and fry for a few minutes on each side, until lightly charred on the outside and piping hot and white through the centre.
    • Remove the chicken and set aside on a plate, then lower the heat to medium.
    Paso 2
  3. Fry the shallots

    • Add the shallots to the leftover fat in the pan.
    • Fry until soft and golden.
    Paso 3
  4. Build the cream cheese sauce

    • Pour in the chicken stock.
    • Stir in the cream cheese and whisk well until it blends into a smooth sauce with no lumps.
    • Stir in the Dijon mustard, then stir in the resting juices from the chicken.
    Paso 4
  5. Adjust the consistency

    • The sauce should be relatively thick already; if not, gently simmer for a couple of minutes.
    • If it becomes too thick, stir in a splash more stock or water to thin it out.
    Paso 5
  6. Finish and serve

    • Return the chicken to the pan and baste it in the sauce.
    • Sprinkle with chives and a pinch of black pepper.
    • Serve up and enjoy.
