Create a wonderfully tangy and sweet Baked Honey Mustard Chicken that brings back happy kitchen memories. This simple recipe delivers big flavor with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking dish.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, thyme, salt, and pepper until smooth. This is your delicious glaze.
  3. Place the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish.
  4. Pour the honey mustard mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, making sure they are well coated.
  5. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  6. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy the flavor journey!

Notes

  • If your chicken breasts are very thick, you may need to pound them slightly for even cooking.
  • You can use yellow mustard for a milder tang, but Dijon provides the best sharp flavor.
  • Basting the chicken halfway through cooking helps build a thicker crust.
