Honey Dijon Chicken

I absolutely love cooking for other people, and it's nice to use an easy recipe when I'm cooking for others.  It's especially nice to use a recipe that doesn't result in me making a giant mess in the kitchen.  I tend to do that.  A lot.

What's that saying?  If you didn't make a mess, you didn't cook?  Maybe I just made that up.  I'm going to go with it anyway.  Let's call it my cooking mantra.

P.S. - This is one dish that I did NOT create a mess with...so I made it twice.


Honey Dijon Chicken

Ingredients:
6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
salt and pepper
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup dijon mustard
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley

Directions:
1.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2.  Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper.  Place in a 9" x 13" baking dish.
3.  Combine remaining ingredients in a small bowl.  Pour 1/2 of mixture over the chicken and brush to cover the chicken.
4.  Bake chicken for 30 minutes.  Flip chicken and brush with remaining sauce mixture.  Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until juices run clear.
