Flavorful Baked Chicken with a Sweet and Spicy Kick
  • Prep Time

Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons of premium extra-virgin olive oil
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, each weighing around 8 ounces
  • A total of 10 tablespoons of sweet hot mustard, divided accordingly
  • A hint of garlic and herb seasoning, to your preference
  • A sprinkle of ground black pepper, tailored to taste
  • 1 cup of finely chopped onion
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced

Step 1

To begin, preheat your oven to a toasty 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for that perfect roasting temperature.

Step 2

Start by delicately pouring olive oil into a bowl, then generously coat each succulent chicken breast on both sides with the olive oil, allowing them to soak up all that goodness.

Step 3

Next, find a trusty 9x13-inch oven-safe glass baking dish and pour in the remaining oil. Now, it's time to add a special touch - mix in 2 tablespoons of sweet hot mustard for a flavorful kick.

Step 4

With a creative flair, brush each chicken breast with a tablespoon of sweet hot mustard on one side, then season them with a delightful blend of garlic and herb seasoning along with a pinch of pepper.

Step 5

Carefully place the mustard-coated side of the breasts down in the baking dish, and don't forget to generously season the other side. For an extra burst of flavor, scatter portions of onion and garlic around the chicken, topping it off with any leftover pieces for added aroma.

Step 6

Slide the baking dish into the preheated oven and let it work its magic for around 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear. To be absolutely sure, an instant-read thermometer should register at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C) when inserted into the center of the chicken.

Step 7

Once done, cover the dish with a snug aluminum foil blanket and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before diving in to enjoy a tender, flavorful meal.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Invest in airtight containers to keep your baked chicken fresh and full of flavor for longer periods of time. This will also help prevent any odors from spreading in your fridge.
  2. 2. For easy access and organization, consider labeling your containers with the date of preparation and the type of seasoning used for your chicken.
