Baked Honey Mustard Chicken

An easy and flavorful way to prepare chicken. You can use any chicken pieces you like. We like to use a whole fryer cut into pieces. Boneless pieces will take slightly less time.

Prep time: 20 minutes; Cook time: 45-60 minutes; 6 servings

Ingredients:

  • 6 – 8 chicken pieces, trimmed of skin and extra fat
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup prepared dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper to taste, and place in a lightly greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the honey, mustard, basil, paprika, and parsley. Mix well.
  4. Pour 1/2 of this mixture over the chicken, and brush to cover.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
  6. Turn chicken pieces over and brush with the remaining 1/2 of the honey mustard mixture. Bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.
  7. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.
