POULET A LA MOUTARDE (CHICKEN IN DIJON MUSTARD SAUCE)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Warm oil and butter in a large, ovenproof casserole or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper and place into the pot, skin-side down. Brush thighs with 1/2 the mustard. Cook until skin is golden, 3 to 4 minutes, and turn thighs over. Brush with remaining mustard. Cook 3 to 4 minutes more and transfer thighs to a plate.
• Reduce heat to medium and add sliced onion to the casserole. Cook until nearly clear, 5 to 6 minutes. Pour in wine to deglaze. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil, about 5 minutes. Keep cooking until sauce reduces slightly and no longer smells strongly of alcohol, 3 to 4 minutes more.
• Pour broth and heavy cream into the casserole dish. Scrape the bottom to loosen browned bits. Add bay leaf and thyme. Return chicken to the casserole dish and cover.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and juices run clear, about 40 minutes.

CRISPY MUSTARD-ROASTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the garlic, thyme, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until the garlic is finely minced. Add the panko, lemon zest, olive oil, and butter and pulse a few times to moisten the bread flakes. Pour the mixture onto a large plate. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the mustard and wine.
• Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle generously all over with salt and pepper. Dip each piece in the mustard mixture to coat on all sides, and then place skin-side down only into the crumb mixture, pressing gently to make the crumbs adhere. Place the chicken on a sheet pan crumb-side up. Press the remaining crumbs on the chicken pieces.
• Bake the chicken for 40 minutes. Raise the heat to 400 degrees F and bake for another 10 minutes, until the crumbs are browned and the chicken is cooked through. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When it is hot, brown the chicken for one-and-a-half minutes on each side.
• Mix in the onion and continue cooking for one minute.

• Remove the meat to a serving platter and keep warm.
• Cook the sauce to reduce it to about one-and-a-half cups. Mix the dry mustard with the Dijon mustard and stir until smooth. Stir the mustard mixture into the sauce and heat, but do not allow the sauce to boil after the mustard has been added.
• Place the chicken pieces in the sauce and warm over low heat for 10 to 15 minutes to develop the flavor.
• Serve the chicken with the sauce.

• Remove chicken from marinade; season with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Cook chicken on preheated grill until golden brown and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Plate chicken with arugula salad on top.

MUSTARD CHICKEN (POULET A LA MOUTARDE)

Steps:

• Combine and mix 1/2 cup mustard with the paprika, ground pepper, and salt in a bowl. Use your hands to rub the mustard mixture all over each chicken piece. Set coated chicken aside.
• In a large saucepan, fry the bacon bits over medium heat until they are just beginning to crisp up. Using a skimmer or a slotted spoon, transfer crisp bacon pieces to a small bowl and set aside. Discard about 1/2 of the rendered bacon fat.
• With the remaining fat still over medium heat, add the onions and thyme, and saute until soft. Transfer to the bacon bowl.
• Over medium-high heat, add the chicken wings to the pan in single layers without crowding them. If they do not all fit, work in batches. Brown the chicken wings for about 8-10 minutes per side. Do not be afraid of the brown bits accumulating on the pan, but regulate the heat so that they do not burn and turn black. Avoid moving the chicken around in the pan; this will prevent the skin from turning crisp.
• Once the chicken has all been browned, remove it from the pan and transfer it to a plate for a few moments. With the heat still on, add the white wine to de-glaze the pan. It will steam up, but don't be alarmed. Use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the pan as the wine simmers. This simmering will cook off the alcohol and give you the foundation of your pan sauce (the fond).
• Add the bacon and onions back to the pan with the fond and give it a little stir. Add all of the chicken back to the pan as well (cram it if you have to!), cover, and let it all simmer for 15-20 minutes.
• Turn the heat off and add the remaining 1/4 cup of mustard, the mustard seeds, and the creme fraiche to create the sauce. Give it all a good stir and try to coat the chicken wings with the sauce.
• Serve with parsley as a garnish.
