WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE FRESH DILL?

Feel free to use dried dill instead of fresh.  Joe sure to use the 3:1 ratio with measuring.  1 teaspoon of dry dill equals 1 Tbsp of fresh dill.  Dried herbs are more concentrated, so start with less and add more to taste.

HOW DO I MAKE CREAMY DIJON DILL CHICKEN?

In a large skillet, begin to heat olive oil. Season your chicken breasts with Italian seasoning, salt & pepper. (I sliced my chicken breast in half, because they were very thick portions. Use your discretion.)

Add chicken to the skillet. Continue to cook until seared on both sides, and mostly cooked through. Remove chicken and set aside for now.

In the same skillet, add butter and minced garlic over medium-high heat. Once garlic becomes fragrant, add the greek yogurt and chicken broth. Stir everything together and bring to a low boil.

Next, add dijon mustard, fresh dill, and cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon water + 1 tablespoon water mixed together). The sauce should begin to thicken.

Add chicken breast back to the skillet and reduce heat to a simmer. Cover with lid, and cook for another 5 minutes over low heat, or until chicken is cooked through.

Garnish with additional fresh dill, if desired.

This stovetop Creamy Dijon Dill Chicken is a delicious, flavorful dish that comes together in no time!
