Honey Mustard Chicken has the most flavorful seasoning blend and a tangy and sweet mustard sauce! This chicken makes a perfect, fast and easy weeknight dinner!
Place the chicken breasts in a large Zip-top bag or between two sheets of cling wrap and pound the thicker side until it reaches a ½ inch thickness.
Mix the salt, paprika powder, black pepper, dried basil and cayenne together in a small bowl, then sprinkle it in with the chicken and mix them around to coat.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add half of the butter.
Add the chicken breasts and cook on both sides until the skin starts to caramelize and crisp up. Add ¼ cup of chicken broth or water to the pan to deglaze it. Then remove the pan from the heat.
In the same small bowl, mix the remaining butter, honey, garlic paste, Dijon and yellow mustard together.
Brush or spread the mixture over the top and bottom of the chicken breasts.
Add the rosemary around the pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Let the chicken cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
This chicken is great served with rice, green beans, or mashed potatoes.
Notes
NOTE: If you don't have fresh rosemary just add a good pinch of dried rosemary in with the spices when you season your chicken.
