Ingredients

1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts about four 6-ounce chicken breasts
salt and black pepper
3 tablspoons olive oil divided
⅓ cup honey
¼ cup smooth Dijon mustard
¼ cup whole grain mustard
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
2 cloves garlic minced
¼ teaspoon black pepper
chopped fresh parsley optional, for garnish

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375° F.
Pat the chicken breasts dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large cast iron skillet or other oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
While the chicken browns, make the honey mustard sauce. In a medium bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, honey, smooth Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, apple cider vinegar, fresh thyme leaves, minced garlic and black pepper. Whisk until well combined.
Once the chicken has browned on both sides, remove the pan from the heat. Spoon the honey mustard sauce over the chicken breasts in the skillet.
Place the skillet in the preheated oven. Bake chicken for 15-25 minutes, until chicken is cooked through. The center of the chicken should register 165° F on an instant read thermometer.
Serve chicken with sauce, garnishing with chopped fresh parsley, as desired.

Notes

If your chicken breasts are very large or an uneven thickness, you can pound them to thin them out to an even thickness. Or, slice large chicken breasts in half horizontally to get thin chicken cutlets.
