Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons ghee
  • 1 large onion (sliced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 3/4 cup chicken stock
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup coconut cream (unsweetened)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Season chicken thighs with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for about 5–6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add ghee. Sauté sliced onions for 5–6 minutes until soft; add minced garlic for the last minute.
  3. Deglaze the skillet with chicken stock, stirring to release any browned bits. Simmer for about 3 minutes.
  4. Stir in Dijon mustard, coconut cream, lemon juice, and thyme or poultry seasoning.
  5. Return the chicken to the skillet and cook for an additional minute while gently stirring to coat in sauce. Adjust seasonings if needed.
  6. Serve garnished with fresh parsley alongside cauliflower rice or roasted vegetables.
