Ingredients
Instructions
- Adjust oven racks to top and middle positions. Preheat oven 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.
- Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. Roast on top rack until lightly browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, pat chicken cutlets dry with paper towels. 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. Transfer to a cutting board to rest.
- While chicken cooks, toss broccoli on a second baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. Roast on middle rack until tender, 12-15 minutes.
- Heat the same pan over medium heat. Stir in chicken stock concentrate, 2 tablespoons water (4 tablespoons for 4 servings) and as much chopped dill and Dijon mustard as you like. Remove from heat; stir in sour cream and 1 tablespoon butter (2 tablespoons for 4 servings), scraping up browned bits. Season with salt and pepper. If sauce is too thick, add water 1 teaspoon at a time until drizzling consistency.
- Slice chicken crosswise. Divide chicken, potatoes and broccoli among plates. Drizzle with sauce. Garnish with remaining dill if desired. Serve.
Recipe Tips
For extra crispy potatoes, spread them in a single layer without overcrowding.
If you don’t have chicken stock concentrate, substitute with 1 teaspoon bouillon paste dissolved in 2 tablespoons water.
The sauce can be made ahead and reheated gently.
