Transfer chicken to a plate. Add butter to the same skillet.

Reduce heat to medium, add garlic and saute until golden brown for about 30 seconds.

Pour in chicken broth and scrape up browned bits. Add in maple syrup and both mustards.

Let mixture simmer until slightly thickened for about 2 minutes.

Return chicken to pan. Spoon sauce over chicken and garnish with herbs if desired.
