Honey Dijon Baked Chicken recipe



Honey Dijon Baked Chicken

4 lbs chicken thighs, boneless & skinless
1/2 C dijon mustard
1/2 C honey
2 tsp fresh thyme
2 Tbs warm water
Salt & Pepper

1. Preheat oven to 400°.
2. And a small mixing bowl, whisk together mustard, honey, thyme, water, and salt and pepper. 
3. Put chicken thighs in a 9" x 13" baking dish. Pour mixture over thighs, and toss to thoroughly coat. 
4. Bake thighs at 400° for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Yields 8 (4-oz) servings. 


How easy is this!?! I love making a healthy, tasty meal that's easy, too. 


Maybe this is where the term "awesome sauce" originated. The chicken is ready to be baked. The family couldn't wait to get to chow down. 


The finished dish. 
I wanted to increase the protein even more, so I served the chicken along side a serving of BirdsEye Protein Blend. 
Perfect pairing.
