Honey Mustard Chicken Breasts with Apple Slices image

Our family loves honey mustard, and it is a natural with chicken breasts since they are mild and absorb the flavor so well. Just make sure they are skinless and can absorb the sauce (plus they are so much healthier that way!) This is a favorite fall and winter dish for us, or when we have guests!

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper if you don't like spicy food.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish turned out dry and bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened. I would recommend making sure that you use a good quality chicken breast and that you don't overcook it.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning. The chicken was cooked perfectly, but the sauce was a bit too thin. I would recommend thickening it with a cornstarch slurry.
