Though honey and mustard are commonly paired, the addition of orange and dill is new to me. Ingredients:
1 1/4 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts |
8 teaspoons dijon mustard |
8 teaspoons honey |
2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped |
1 tablespoon orange zest, finely grated |
Directions:
1. Pre-heat oven to 375°F
2. Wash the chicken breast fillets and pat dry. If one side is much thicker than the other you may want to give it a quick pound with a meat mallet (skin-side down) to even it out.
3. For the sauce, mix the Dijon mustard, honey, dill and orange zest in a small bowl, stir well.
4. Brush both sides of the fillets with the marinade and bake the chicken for 30 minutes.
5. Cut the fillets with a sharp knife on the thickest part, if the juices run clear they are done.
