Chicken Breasts in an Orange-Thyme Sauce

Ingredients:

20 ozs of boneless, skinless chicken breasts

¾ tsp of salt

2 tbsp of unsalted butter

3 strips of orange zest – 1/8 inch wide and 7 inches long

¾ cup of orange juice

5 sprigs of fresh thyme

¾ tsp of whole grain mustard

Directions:

Using a skillet that has a cover, melt the butter and add in the chicken breasts.  Salt the chicken and brown on both sides.

Place the orange zest and thyme on top of the chicken breasts and then pour the orange juice over them.

Reduce the heat to medium low.  Cover the chicken and let it cook for 1 addition hour, occasionally turning the chicken.

Serve warm with your favorite vegetable. (I like it with sliced/steamed carrots)
