Dijon Chicken With Tomatoes and Scallions

Dijon Chicken With Tomatoes and Scallions
Christopher Simpson for The New York Times. Food Stylist: Susie Theodorou.

Recipe by Yasmin Fahr | Total time: 40 minutes

A one-pot dish that guards all the delicious flavors it creates as it cooks — the crispy browned bits of seared chicken, simmering soft scallions and burst tomatoes — and transforms them into a sauce with the addition of white wine and mustard. The tomatoes pop and deflate as they soften, adding their juices to the liquid, which helps gently braise the chicken. Tip in pickled jalapeños and a bit of brine to add punch. Serve this with crusty bread or spoon it onto rice or polenta. A green salad or steamed broccoli complete the meal.
