Sometimes the simplest of meals are often the best.  This delicious recipe for Honey Dijon Chicken breasts uses only 5 simple ingredients and is so easy to prepare!

Honey Dijon Chicken Breasts with MozzarellaI made this on a night when I wasn't really sure what to do with some chicken breasts we had bought on sale.  Using just ingredients I already had stocked in my fridge and cupboards I was able to create this yummy dish!

The flavor of the chicken was spectacular and I would describe the Dijon as distinct yet light while the sweetness of the honey was just right.  I used a grainy Dijon mustard for this recipe since I really enjoy not only the taste but how appealing it looks when used in cooking.  The mozzarella was sprinkled on top of the chicken and crisped up while baking in the oven.

The chicken was served over fluffy basmati rice and I also drizzled some of the sauce from the baking dish over top – this made it even more delicious!

Let me tell you – when this was finished baking and set on the table it didn't take long for it to disappear! 🙂

    1. Regular mustard would give this a slightly different flavor, but it would still taste very good!

      When you mix up the sauce juts give it a little taste test before you add the chicken. You can add a little more honey or a little more mustard depending on your liking.

      Thanks for stopping by! 😀
