Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1.5 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cups parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly spray the parchment with non-stick cooking spray.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, and mayonnaise until smooth. Set this mixture aside.
In a shallow dish, combine the panko breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well blended.
Brush each chicken breast generously with the mustard mixture, ensuring it is well coated on all sides.
Press each coated chicken breast into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing firmly to adhere the crumbs. Ensure the chicken is evenly coated with the breadcrumb mixture.
Place the breaded chicken breasts onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each piece.
Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the chicken breasts to enhance the crispiness.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the coating is golden brown and the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve your Sweet Crunchy Mustard Chicken with a side of roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
