Chicken With Creamy Mustard Chive Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 (4 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts, trimmed of fat
    1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    1/4 cup all-purpose flour
    2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
    Creamy Mustard Chive Sauce
    1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
    2 large shallots, finely chopped
    1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup dry white wine
    1 (14 ounce) can reduced-sodium chicken broth
    1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    1/3 cup reduced-fat sour cream
    1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    1/2 cup chopped chives (about 1 bunch)
Preparation
    Place chicken between sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet or heavy skillet until flattened to an even thickness, about 1/2 inch.
    Season both sides of the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
    Place 1/4 cup flour in a shallow glass baking dish and dredge the chicken in it; discard the excess flour.
    Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
    Add the chicken and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
    Transfer to a plate, cover and keep warm.
    Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon oil in the pan over medium-high heat.
    Add shallots and cook, stirring constantly and scraping up any browned bits, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
    Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon flour; stir to coat.
    Add wine, broth and salt; bring to a boil, stirring often.
    Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the pan, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until heated through and no longer pink in the center, about 6 minutes.
    Stir in sour cream and mustard until smooth; turn the chicken to coat with the sauce.
    Stir in chives and serve immediately.
