Рецепт Honey Dijon Glazed Chicken Breasts
Honey Dijon Glazed Chicken Breasts
Borrowing from the success of our very popular Honey Soy Chicken Breasts, which has been pinned on Pinterest over 100,000 times, I decided to experiment with another flavor variation of the same recipe and boy was it ever delicious! The marinade kept the chicken breast so moist and tender. The simple marinade, which then does double duty as the brushed on glaze, is quite lightly flavored and does not overwhelm the natural flavor of the chicken. We served it with a BLT salad and the family just loved it. This is another recipe sure to make it into regular rotation in our dinner menu planning for sure.
Stir together:
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 tbsp light soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 3 cloves minced garlic
- 1/4 cup dijon mustard
- 3 tbsp lemon juice
- To a large Ziploc bag add:
- 4 large chicken breasts, (not boneless, skinless)
Pour the marinade over the chicken and store in the fridge for a couple of hours.
Place the marinaded chicken breasts on an aluminum foil lined cookie
sheet and bake at 375 degrees F, uncovered, for about 45 - 60 minutes or
until the chicken is fully cooked.
Do not throw out the marinade, instead to it add:
1/4 cup of additional honey
While the chicken is cooking simmer the marinade
over low heat and brush it repeatedly on the chicken in about the last half hour of cooking time; about every 10 minutes as it
cooks.
