Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons whole grain Dijon mustard
- 2-3 sprigs of rosemary
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari for gluten-free
- 2 cloves garlic minced or grated
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)
- 1/2 cup chicken broth or water
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
- In a bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, salt, pepper, and chicken broth until thoroughly combined.
- Add the chicken breasts to the mixture, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Arrange the chicken in a baking dish in a single layer, and tuck the rosemary sprigs between the chicken pieces.
- Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Remove from the oven and drizzle the chicken with the sauce from the baking dish before serving.
Notes
For juicier chicken with more sauce, cover the pan while baking. For a darker, golden-brown finish with a thicker sauce, bake uncovered.
