Meals-in-Minutes Monday

Hi everyone! Kendall here to bring you another edition of Meals-in-Minutes Monday. I have to be honest; Mondays are hard for me. Heading back to the daily grind after enjoying a nice weekend with the family isn't easy for any of us, right? So if you're like me, the last thing you feel like doing on a Monday is worrying about what's for dinner. Well, you're in luck! I've got a super-easy, fast recipe to share with you today. (It's great for any day of the week but especially comes in handy for days when you just want to make something quick and delicious).

Baked Honey Mustard Chicken

Ingredients:

• 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/2 cup prepared mustard
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper to taste and place in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish. In a small bowl, combine the honey, mustard, basil, paprika, and parsley. Mix well. Pour 1/2 of this mixture over the chicken, and brush to cover.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Turn chicken pieces over and brush with the remaining 1/2 of the honey mustard mixture. Bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.

It's so easy to make this dish, and the best part is that it only takes about 15 minutes to prepare. Then, just pop it in the oven for a half hour, and you're ready to eat. Oh, and did I mention it's also low-fat? Woot! My family loves this recipe, and I hope yours will too!
