    It's  funny.  The best part about this Sweet Dijon Chicken Breasts recipe is not that it only requires 3 ingredients.  The best part is the taste, whether you use Dijon or yellow mustard!

     

    Ingredients in Sweet Dijon Chicken Breasts

    • chicken breasts
    • Dijon or yellow mustard
    • brown sugar
    • lemon juice
    • salt
    • pepper

    How to make Sweet Dijon Chicken Breasts

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

    Prepare a rimmed baking sheet with tinfoil, lightly coated in cooking spray. 

    Place chicken in the pan.

    In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, mustard, pepper, salt and lemon juice.

    Brush half the mixture over the chicken.

    Bake for 15 minutes.

    Brush the remaining mixture over the chicken and bake for about 20-30 minutes more, or until juices run clear. If possible, baste one more time, at about the 30 minute mark as well.

    Enjoy!
