Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cups parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish to prevent sticking.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the honey mustard sauce.
In a separate bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, olive oil, and melted butter. Stir until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated and slightly moist.
Place the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish. Using a spoon or brush, coat each piece generously with the honey mustard sauce on both sides.
Press the breadcrumb mixture onto the top of each chicken breast, creating a thick, even crust. Pat down gently to ensure it adheres well.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve immediately.
