CHICKEN WITH CHEESY DILL CREAM SAUCE

Ingredients

    blank

    • 2 tablespoons butter 
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil 
    • 4 chicken breasts 
    • Salt and pepper to taste 

    blank

    • 2 tablespoons butter 
    • 2 garlic cloves, minced 
    • 1 tablespoon flour 
    • 1 cup chicken broth 
    • 1 cup heavy cream 
    • Juice of 1/2 small lemon (about 1 tablespoon) 
    • ¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste 
    • Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste 
    • 2-3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill 
    • 1 cup Meister Cheese Dill Havarti, shredded 

    Directions

    1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper.

    2. Melt the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over mediumhigh heat. Once hot, add the chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes until browned. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate. The chicken will finish cooking in the oven.

    3. Using the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter and garlic. Cook for 1 minute, then whisk in the flour and cook for another minute.

    4. While whisking, gradually pour in the chicken broth. Whisk in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the lemon juice, 1 tablespoon dill, salt, and pepper. Let simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened, then stir in the cheese until melted and smooth.

    5. Add the chicken back to the skillet with the sauce. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 12-18 minutes, depending on thickness of the chicken, until it reaches 165°F.

    6. Garnish with the remaining dill and serve over mashed potatoes.
