Instructions

  1. Adjust oven racks to top and middle positions and preheat to 450°F. Wash and dry produce. Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Cut broccoli into bite-size pieces if needed. Finely chop dill fronds.
  2. Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast on top rack until lightly browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, pat chicken dry with paper towels and season all over with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, 5-7 minutes per side. Turn off heat; transfer chicken to a cutting board to rest.
  4. While chicken cooks, toss broccoli on a second baking sheet with a drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast on middle rack until tender, 12-15 minutes.
  5. Heat the same pan used for chicken over medium heat. Stir in stock concentrate, 2 tablespoons water (4 for 4 servings) and as much chopped dill and mustard as you like. Remove from heat; stir in sour cream and 1 tablespoon butter (2 for 4 servings), scraping up any browned bits from bottom of pan. Season with salt and pepper. If sauce is too thick, add more water 1 teaspoon at a time until drizzling consistency.
  6. Slice chicken crosswise. Divide chicken, potatoes and broccoli among plates. Drizzle with sauce. Garnish with remaining dill if desired and serve.

Recipe Tips

For extra crispy potatoes, spread them in a single layer on the baking sheet and avoid overcrowding.

If you don’t have chicken stock concentrate, substitute 1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth and reduce the added water in the sauce.

The sauce can be made ahead and gently reheated, but it’s best fresh.

FAQ

Can I use chicken breasts instead of cutlets?

Yes, you can use boneless skinless chicken breasts. Pound them to an even thickness for even cooking and adjust cooking time as needed.

Can I substitute the dill with another herb?

Fresh dill adds a distinct flavor, but you can substitute with fresh parsley or tarragon for a different but delicious taste.

How do I store leftovers?

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave.
