Curried Honey Mustard Chicken, Rice, Broccoli


I tried a delicious honey mustard chicken at a friend's house years ago, and this recipe with the curry powder sounded like a fun twist on the idea. I'm guessing you could use regular mustard if you prefer it over Dijon; let me know if you try it!

Curried Honey Mustard Chicken
adapted from AllRecipes.com
2 T butter, melted
1/3 c honey
1/4 c Dijon-style prepared mustard
4 t curry powder
1 pinch ground cayenne pepper
3 chicken breasts, cut into half or thirds

In a medium bowl combine melted butter, honey, mustard, curry powder and cayenne. Mix well with a whisk. Place chicken breasts in a baking dish coated with cooking spray and pour honey mustard mixture over chicken. Cover and place in refrigerator. Marinate 4 hours our overnight. Preheat oven to 375. Remove dish from refrigerator and bake, covered, for 10 minutes. Remove cover and bake about 10 minutes more, until chicken is cooked through.


Sides
1 c rice
broccoli florets

Cook rice according to directions. Serve chicken on top of rice, and spoon sauce over as desired.

Steam broccoli. Season with salt and pepper.
