These are so delicious! What an affordable meal, too! It looks quite fancy but its actually a very thrifty meal! You can cut a whole chicken, or buy a family pack of thighs, wings, breasts, etc. Great for entertaining on a budget. #SoNomNom4u #chickenwithdijonsauce

Heat an iron skillet with olive oil. Heat to medium high and place chicken in hot oil with skin down. Let the chicken cook until the skin becomes a nice shade of golden brown. Using tongs, flip chicken over and add the sliced onions. Lift chicken with tongs, allowing onions to get under each piece. cook another 15-20 minutes until chicken is crispy and onions are brown.
Remove chicken from pan. Keep onions in pan. Place chicken on a plate.
In pan, add white wine, cream, and dijon mustard. Cook until mixture thickens a bit. Stir Regularly to mix onions and meat juices from pan into mixture. Remove sauce and puree it in the blender. Pour sauce back in the pan. Once this thickens a bit, place chicken pieces back into pan. If chicken is not 160°F internally, place skillet into 350°F oven and bake approximately 10 minutes until internal temp of chicken reaches 160°F. Serve hot!
