Dijon Chicken Bake

Trying this tonight, i'll letcha know if it's any good :] VIA Just Cook Already




2-4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon curry powder
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup dijon mustard
2 tablespoons soy sauce
*optional: 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes for a little spice
directions

preheat oven to 400 degrees.

place chicken breasts in a large bowl. in a smaller bowl, add curry powder, honey, dijon, and soy sauce and whisk together until smooth and blended. add the red pepper flakes in this mixture at this time if you want a little spice. pour half of the mixture over the chicken and marinate for 24 hours. if you don't have 24 hours (which i didn't tonight), the chicken tastes just as delicious without marinating it forever. sprinkle some salt and pepper over top and put in the oven for 20-25 minutes. when the chicken has about 5 minutes left, take the remaining mixture and put in a medium sauce pan over medium heat. bring to a simmer and stir often, creating a thicker sauce. when the chicken is finished, plate and pour sauce over the cooked chicken.

okay i doubled this recipe because i'm feeding a hungry man- but IF YOU DO, DONT BOTHER DOUBLING THE SAUCE- it's perfect just with one batch of the sauce split in half (one half for marinating, one half for topping) i doubled it and it was wayyy too much sauce, (albeit still delicious on the rice) i'm a recent mustard convert and this was yummmmmy. (also look at the cute acorn squashies from the garden!)
