Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Combine the mustard, honey, garlic powder, and olive oil in a medium mixing bowl or shallow baking dish. Stir until uniformly mixed.

Place the chicken breasts one at a time in the honey-mustard mixture, turning to coat. Arrange the chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake on middle rack of oven until the thickest part of the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, about 15 minutes.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Room Temperature Chicken 🌡️
Remove chicken from the refrigerator 15-20 minutes before cooking to ensure even cooking throughout and prevent dry exteriors with undercooked centers.
Pound for Uniform Thickness 🔨
Gently pound chicken breasts to an even ½-inch thickness so they cook uniformly and cook faster, preventing the edges from drying out while waiting for the center to finish.
Emulsify Your Glaze 🥄
Whisk the honey and mustard together with a touch of olive oil before coating to create a smooth, cohesive glaze that adheres better and caramelizes beautifully.
Don't Skip the Sear 🔥
Sear the chicken for 3-4 minutes per side in a hot pan before adding the honey-mustard mixture to develop a golden crust that locks in juices and adds depth of flavor.
Use an Instant-Read Thermometer 📊
Check doneness at 165°F in the thickest part to guarantee perfectly cooked, safe chicken every time without guessing or overcooking.
