My Honey Mustard Chicken is so simple to prepare and cooks in the oven in about 45 minutes, It’s a very easy weeknight dinner that your whole family will love!
I’ve used grainy mustard and dijon to make my honey mustard chicken, but you can use other varieties of mustard if you prefer.
Tips for Making Honey Mustard Chicken
- I prefer to use skin on chicken thighs as they don’t dry out as much as chicken breast when baked, but you can use either.
- I find the flavor is better with two types of mustard, but you can use one variety in a pinch.
- If your honey is super thick you can soften it in the jar or bottle by sitting the it in a bowl of hot water, then it should pour out easier.
