  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 15 minute

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
– 1/4 cup whole grain mustard
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Creating Savory French Mustard Chicken is easy when you follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, olive oil, honey, minced garlic, thyme, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

2. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the mustard marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.

3. Preheat the Oven: When ready to cook, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

4. Arrange Chicken in Baking Dish: Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator and place it in a baking dish. Pour any remaining marinade over the chicken.

5. Bake the Chicken: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

6. Broil for Extra Color: For a beautiful golden finish, switch the oven to broil mode for the last 3-5 minutes of cooking. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.

7. Rest the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. This helps retain moisture.

8. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top for a burst of color and flavor.

By following these straightforward steps, you’ll create a delicious Savory French Mustard Chicken that is sure to impress.
