Ingredients

• 4 pieces Chicken breasts
• 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 optional Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, and minced garlic until smooth. Set this honey mustard mixture aside.

Step 3

In a separate shallow dish, mix the panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, dried parsley, salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir to combine evenly.

Step 4

Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Brush each chicken breast generously with the honey mustard mixture, coating both sides.

Step 5

Dip each coated chicken breast into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure the breadcrumbs stick and create an even crust on all sides.

Step 6

Place the breaded chicken breasts onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced evenly.

Step 7

Spray the tops of the chicken lightly with cooking spray (optional) to help the breadcrumbs brown and crisp up in the oven.

Step 8

Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reads 165°F (74°C) using a meat thermometer and the crust is golden brown.

Step 9

Remove the chicken from the oven and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve your Crusty Honey Mustard Chicken with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad, and enjoy!
