Equipment

  • 1 mixing bowl
  • 1 whisk
  • 1 baking dish or oven-safe skillet
  • 1 meat thermometer (optional)
  • 1 measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts About 1.5 pounds total.
  • ½ cup honey
  • ¼ cup Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • to taste salt
  • to taste pepper
  • fresh parsley For garnish (optional).

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  • Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish or oven-safe skillet. Pour the honey mustard mixture over the chicken, making sure each piece is coated.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Baste the chicken with the sauce halfway through cooking for extra flavor.
  • Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps retain juices.
  • Serve the chicken hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired, and drizzle with any remaining sauce from the baking dish.

Notes

This dish pairs well with roasted vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad.
For a spicy kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the marinade.
You can marinate the chicken for a few hours or overnight for deeper flavor.
