I wanted a new chicken recipe today, and my mum loves mustard chicken, so I came up with this recipe and it turned out great! Next time I'm going to double the quantity and coat the chicken with 1/2 the marinade. The 2nd half I will heat and serve as a side sauce to the chicken.

Time 6h25m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 9

⅓ cup olive oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (such as Clovis®)
1 tablespoon mustard seeds
1 tablespoon honey
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
5 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
¼ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Mix olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, mustard seeds, honey, black pepper, and allspice together in a bowl.
  • Cut small slits in a crosswise-pattern in each chicken breast to help the mustard marinade soak into the chicken. Add chicken to the mustard marinade; toss to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 6 hours.
  • Remove chicken from marinade and sprinkle with salt. Discard the leftover marinade.
  • Lightly oil a grill pan and place over medium-high heat.
  • Cook chicken in the grill pan until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 7 minutes per side.

This recipe is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love the chicken and they don't even notice the vegetables.

I like to add a little bit of honey to the sauce to give it a bit of sweetness. I also like to serve it with a side of roasted vegetables.

I've made this recipe with both boneless, skinless chicken breasts and thighs. Both are delicious, but I prefer the thighs because they're more juicy.
