Preparation

Step 1

Preparation
Whisk 1/2 cup oil, 1/4 cup cup mustard, wine, garlic, and thyme in a medium bowl. Add chicken and turn to coat. Cover and chill at least 4 hours and up to a day.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Whisk honey and 3 tbsp. mustard in a small bowl. Set aside.

Mix walnuts, flour, salt and pepper in a pie dish. Remove chicken from marinade; shake off excess. Coat chicken on both sides with walnut mixture. Heat 3 tbsp. oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until golden, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer skillet to oven; bake chicken until cooked through, about 12 minutes.

Transfer chicken pieces to plates. Drizzle with honey-mustard sauce. Sprinkle with parsley and garnish with lemon, and serve.
