HONEY DIJON CHICKEN

I usually buy chicken breasts from those wholesale places. They are packed boneless, skinless and frozen. The other night I had no idea what to do for dinner and found a delightful recipe on the bag of chicken breasts. This recipe does not require that the chicken be defrosted, it requires minimal work and the chicken came out moist and juicy.

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon dried onion flakes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

  • If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can substitute yellow mustard instead.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your taste preference. For a milder kick, use less cayenne pepper, or for a spicier dish, use more.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the chicken in a grill pan over medium heat.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
