🌟Maple Mustard Magic 🪄

Have you ever tried making anything with Maple and Mustard. They work so well together. The sweetness of Maple vs the sharp kick of Mustard works really well.

Basically, Maple Mustard is a fall makeover for Honey Mustard Chicken Breast or Honey Mustard Chicken Stir Fry or Honey Mustard Tofu Stir-Fry

Just that we are using Pure Maple Syrup instead of Honey.

🥘Ingredients

see the recipe card for quantities

• Chicken Breasts - you can also use boneless skinless chicken thighs
• Dijon Mustard - Pure Dijon Mustard has a sharp kick that makes the recipe taste amazing.
• Yellow Mustard - We don't want our chicken to get dry therefore add some yellow mustard as well.
• Worcestershire Sauce - Worcestershire Sauce brings in acidity in the sauce making the taste stand out.
• Pure Maple Syrup - 100% Pure Maple Syrup makes the sauce taste amazing.
• Freshly Minced Garlic - Garlic adds that kick to the sauce.
• Salt and Freshly Ground Black Pepper - Basic seasoning to season the recipe.

🔪How to Make Maple Mustard Chicken

Make Maple Mustard Sauce

In a mixing bowl or a glass pyrex jar combine Pure Maple Syrup, Dijon Mustard, Yellow Mustard, Worcestershire Sauce, Freshly minced garlic, Salt, and Freshly ground Black pepper. Whisk well until it becomes smooth.

Dump it in the Slow Cooker

Place chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker. Pour the Maple Mustard Sauce over chicken and toss lightly to coat chicken completely.

Cook

Cook in the Crockpot on High for 3-4 hours or on Low for 6 hours.

Shred Chicken

Finally take out chicken and place it on a surface. Use two forks to shred chicken and bring it back to the slow cooker.

Stir in Heavy Cream

Finally, stir in heavy cream and serve right away.

👀Can I use Chicken Thighs?

Of course. You can always substitute Chicken Breasts with boneless skinless chicken thighs.

🍯Instant Pot Maple Mustard Chicken

If you want to sauté your chicken until lightly browned. Then add the remaining ingredients. Stir well and cook in Manual/Pressure Cook Mode until the chicken is tender.

Use an Instant read thermometer to check the internal temperature of chicken. If it reads 165 degree F then you can take it out and shred. Or else cook for a longer duration.

Pour heavy cream, and stir lightly. Serve right away.

🍳Pan Seared Maple Mustard Chicken

If you want to make pan seared chicken then just add olive oil to a pan. Once the oil turns hot add chicken (skin side down) and sear until chicken turns light brown on the outside. This takes at least 3-4 minutes per side.

Then transfer this to a baking dish with Maple Mustard Mixture. Cook at 400 degrees F for at least 10-minutes.
