This recipe combines the sweetness of honey with the tanginess of mustard to create a delightful chicken dish.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat, then stir in the honey and mustard until well combined.
Stir constantly to prevent the butter from burning.
Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and pour the glaze over them, ensuring they are well coated.
Turn the chicken a few times to evenly coat it with the glaze.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, basting with the glaze every 15 minutes.
Basting helps keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
After 45 minutes, turn the chicken over and bake for an additional 15 minutes until golden and crispy.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Serve the chicken hot with your choice of sides, such as mashed potatoes and green beans.
Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
