Instructions:
-
Flatten chicken: Begin by flattening the chicken breasts to about 1/4 inch thickness. This helps them cook evenly and allows the flavors to penetrate better.
-
Prepare coating: In a shallow dish, combine the bread crumbs with 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard. This will create a flavorful coating for the chicken.
-
Make honey mustard mixture: In another dish, mix together the honey and the remaining Dijon mustard. This sweet and tangy mixture will be the highlight of your dish.
-
Coat chicken: Dip each chicken breast into the honey mustard mixture, ensuring it’s well coated on both sides.
-
Coat with crumbs: After coating the chicken in the honey mustard, dredge it in the bread crumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the crumbs to the chicken.
-
Cook chicken: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter or margarine. Once melted, add the coated chicken breasts and cook for about 4 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
-
Serve and enjoy: Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a serving platter and serve hot. You can pair it with your favorite side dishes like steamed vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
This Quick Honey Mustard Chicken is not only quick and easy to make but also packed with flavor and protein, making it a great option for busy weeknights or anytime you want a delicious meal without a lot of fuss. Enjoy! 🍽️
