Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts
- 0.25 cup honey
- 0.25 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with a light layer of olive oil or cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Rinse the chicken breasts under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Place the chicken in the prepared baking dish.
Brush or spoon the honey mustard mixture generously over each chicken breast, ensuring they are fully coated.
Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the chicken to keep it moist while cooking.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) when checked with a meat thermometer.
Once cooked, remove the dish from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving to retain its juices.
Optional: Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for garnish before serving.
Serve warm with your choice of side, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or steamed rice.
