Looking for a quick and super delicious lunch idea? Something that makes your kitchen smell awesome? The honey hustard chicken is that one option! Super quick to prepare and so delicious, let’s see how to get the best out of it!
I have to admit, chicken is one of my favorite meat. Not only because it is so quick to make, but because it is so juicy and flavory. That’s why this honey mustard chicken is one of my favorite meals, with or even without the side dish. I tend to put some side dish to the plate, but the chicken is so rich in flavors that you may eat it without. See below, there is no way you can fail!
Making the honey mustard chicken means being so impatient! Not because it takes time to make it, not at all! It’s because of the smell all over the kitchen! Oh and the taste! You will love the sweet and savory flavor that the glaze gives to the dish.
The honey mustard chicken recipe is one of those that I pick when I need something quick. Although not my favorite thing to do, but I sometimes keep some chicken breast in the freezer. This saves that lunch when I really don’t feel like cooking for hours. If you do so, too, you will need to take the chicken out of the freezer some time before cooking (or even the evening before, if you have time!) so that it defrosts well enough before baking.
I have to be honest, the glaze is what makes the honey mustard chicken so delicious. The ingredients that you see below is a must. You may still add something else, more spices or even herbs, it will work either way!
