How to Prepare:
To prepare this delectable dish, simply follow these easy steps:
- Start by whisking together the Dijon mustard, honey, mayonnaise, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. This will create the mouthwatering marinade for our chicken.
- Next, place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Make sure the chicken is well coated in the marinade. Seal the bag and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. If you can resist the temptation, marinating overnight will elevate the flavors to a whole new level!
- When you’re ready to cook, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Make sure you give it a good scrub and oil the grates to prevent the chicken from sticking.
- Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and shake off any excess. Discard the leftover marinade.
- Place the chicken breasts on the preheated grill and let them cook for about 6-8 minutes per side. Keep an eye on them to avoid overcooking. The internal temperature should reach 165°F for perfectly cooked chicken.
- Once the chicken is done, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. This step is essential to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in tender and juicy chicken.
- Serve your Honey Mustard Grilled Chicken with your favorite sides and watch as your friends and family become instant fans of your culinary skills!
