Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Whole-grain mustard
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- as needed Olive oil spray
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly spray a baking dish with olive oil.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, honey, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and place them in the prepared baking dish.
Spread the mustard mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, ensuring each piece is well coated.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Optional: You can broil the chicken for 1-2 minutes at the end for a slightly caramelized top.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if using, and serve hot.
