Easy honey mustard sauce with baked chicken breasts



 


INGREDIENTS

4 tablespoons olive oil

3 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard

1 tablespoon smooth and mild Dijon mustard

4 cloves garlic, minced

1-2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, adjust to taste

2 pounds (1 kg) boneless skinless chicken breasts, (4 large chicken breasts)

Salt and cracked black pepper, to season

1/2 teaspoon paprika

2 sprigs rosemary

2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley, to garnish (optional)


INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish.

Combine the oil, honey, mustard, garlic, and lemon juice in a small bowl to combine well.

Place the chicken into the prepared baking dish. Season generously with salt, pepper, and paprika. Spoon 3/4 of the honey mustard mixture evenly over the chicken and spread evenly all over each breast. Arrange rosemary between each piece. Pour 1/4 cup water into the bottom of the dish to prevent create a sauce while baking.

Cover and bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Spoon remaining sauce over each breast and bake uncovered for a further 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and juices are no longer pink.

Broil/grill for 2 minutes on medium-high to brown the chicken and caramelize the edges. 

Cover with foil and allow to rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to recirculate before serving. Garnish with parsley and serve warm with pan drippings.
