    How to make Honey Mustard Chicken

    In a medium bowl, thoroughly mix all ingredients, except chicken. Add ½ cup of sauce to a large zip top bag and add chicken breasts. Move sauce around to coat each chicken breast. Save the remaining sauce for dipping.

    Refrigerate for 1 hour or up to 24 hours. Remove chicken breasts 30 minutes before cooking and preheat oven to 425°F.

    Place chicken breasts evenly in a 9x13 baking dish or rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes on center rack until internal temperature reaches 165°F at the thickest part.

    Serve with extra honey mustard sauce for dipping.
