The Secret to the Best Flavors
Authentic honey mustard is the key to making this chicken truly exceptional. We believe in making everything from scratch, ensuring that every ingredient is of the highest quality. In this recipe, we sear the chicken breast, generously douse it in butter and honey mustard, and cook it to perfection. The result is a mouthwatering dish that will have your taste buds dancing with joy.
Tips for an Amazing Dish
To make this Honey Mustard Chicken even better, we strongly recommend using boneless chicken breasts. If possible, buy them thick and slice them in half. You want just the right thickness so that every bite is bursting with flavor. Trust us, it’s worth taking the extra step!

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does Chicken take a long time to cook?
A: Not at all! Depending on the size of the chicken, it usually takes about 20 to 25 minutes to bake. Use a thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 165°F. Once the chicken reaches that, it’s ready to be devoured.
Q: Does this dish take a long time to cook since it is covered in honey mustard?
A: Our dish is made completely from scratch, meaning everything is homemade. However, it will only take 7 minutes longer than if you used already prepared products. The little extra time is absolutely worth it for the incredible flavors you’ll experience.
Q: What other vegetables could I make with this dish?
A: We suggest trying carrots as a perfect accompaniment to this dish. The natural sweetness of the carrots pairs wonderfully with the tangy honey mustard chicken.
Q: Can I use premade sauce?
A: While you could use premade sauce, we highly recommend making our homemade sauce, which only takes a few minutes to whip up. The freshness and quality of the ingredients will make a huge difference in the final result. Trust us, your taste buds will thank you!
