Ingredients

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
¼ cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
¼ cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon capers, rinsed
Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Directions

Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, flipping once halfway, until browned, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a clean plate.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and onion to the pan. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 3 minutes. Stir in wine and mustard, scraping up any browned bits. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Stir in cream and capers. Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the pan. Cover and simmer until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh registers 165°F, about 4 minutes. Serve topped with parsley, if desired.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
