update Honey Mustard Chicken


Honey Mustard Chicken 

endeavor 1 

Last week I post a recipe from another Blog Site www.sixsistersstuff.com on a Grilled Honey Mustard Chicken. On Sunday, I made it and it was very good. It was better than good it is the best Honey Mustard Chicken Recipe I have made at home.

The honey mustard sauce was very thick, so it stuck well to the chicken and did not drip off while grilling. For the mustard I used ‘Central Market Organics Whole Grain Mustard’ a quality whole grain mustard is necessary for this recipe. I let them sit in the honey mustard sauce for a little over one hour, before grilling. The chicken needs to be at room temperature before placing them on the grill.  This will allow them to cook fully without burning on the outside. They were juicy and tender.



Here is the recipe, for the original blogger Simply Scratch www.simplyscratch.com

Honey Mustard Sauce 

  • 1/2 cup of any Whole Grain Mustard 
  • 1/2 cup of Honey 
  • Juice of 1/2 a Lemon 
  • 1 Garlic Clove, smashed and minced 
  • 1/2 teaspoon Paprika 
  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt 
  • 1/4 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper 
  • 1/4 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes 
4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts



The next time I make it, I have made notes to try it with the following changes;
  1. Try fresh squeezed orange juice in place of the lemon juice. 
  2. Replace Cayenne with Chipotle Chile Powder 
  3. Omit the Red Pepper Flakes 
Apple juice or pineapple juice are other liquids I would/will try in place of the Lemon juice.

I will keep you posted.

Did anyone else try it, if so what did you think?
