Ingredients

- oil - 1 tablespoon (1 tablespoon)
- chicken stock - 30cl (30cl)
- paprika - 1 teaspoon (1 teaspoon)
- yellow mustard seeds - 1 teaspoon (1 teaspoon)
- Comté cheese, grated - 200 grams (200 grams)

- garlic clove - 1 (1 clove)
- rosemary - 1 sprig (1 sprig)
- salt - to taste
- pepper - to taste

Instructions
- Prepare Comté cheese: Grate the Comté cheese yourself for better flavor.
- Brown the chicken: Make the chicken thighs presentable and brown them in a frying pan or sauté pan with butter and oil over high heat, then lower the heat.
- Season and deglaze: Add mustard seeds, season with salt, pepper, and paprika. After a minute, deglaze with white wine or lemon juice and wait for it to evaporate.
- Simmer the chicken: Add chicken stock, a clove of garlic, and a sprig of rosemary. Cover and let it simmer for 3 to 4 hours.
- Prepare potatoes: In the meantime, peel some potatoes and boil them.
- Grate the sauce: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it to mix the sauce with cream, Dijon mustard, and 3/4 of the grated Comté.
- Bake: Put the chicken thighs back in the sauce, accompanied by the potatoes. Cover with the rest of the Comté and bake in an oven preheated to 180°C (356°F) for 10 to 15 minutes. Optionally, add a grill finish.
- Garnish and serve: Garnish with chives or parsley before serving.
