DIJON HONEY BAKED CHICKEN

DIJON HONEY BAKED CHICKEN









Dijon Honey Baked Chicken

Ingredients:

1/4 cup honey

2 Tablespoons dijon mustard

2 Tablespoons whole grain dijon mustard

2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar

1 Tablespoon soy sauce (or coconut aminos)

2 cloves garlic, minced

Salt and pepper to taste

1 Tablespoon Sriracha, or more to taste

1/2 cup chicken broth (or dry sherry)

1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)

2-3 sprigs of fresh rosemary


Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Mix the honey, mustards, vinegar, soy sauce, sriracha, garlic, salt, pepper, parmesan, and broth. Toss with the chicken.

Place it all in a baking dish, with the chicken in a single layer before placing the sprigs of rosemary in between the chicken pieces.

Bake until the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 140°F, about 25-35 minutes.


Notes:

Serve topped with the sauce from the pan.

Keep a close eye on the chicken temp. Take it out of the oven at 130°F and set it aside to complete the cooking in the pan. Carry-over cooking will continue to cook the meat while it rests, preserving the juicy texture.

Baking uncovered will give the chicken a deeper brown glaze, but may dry it out more. Using a covered baking dish will help keep the chicken moist and will create more saucy goodness.
