Step 1: Prepare the honey Dijon sauce by mixing together Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
Step 2: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil and place the chicken breasts in the skillet. Cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Reduce the heat to low, pour the honey Dijon sauce over the chicken, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, basting the chicken with the sauce as it thickens. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm.
