Then, in a small bowl, add the honey, mustards, and seasonings for the honey mustard marinade.

Next, stir the contents of the bowl until the mixture is smooth and pourable.

Then, pour the honey mustard mixture over top of the chicken breasts in the baking dish. Flip the chicken over a few times to coat both sides with the mixture.

Next, bake chicken until it is cooked through. This takes approximately 25-30 minutes, but we recommend using a meat thermometer and checking for an internal temperature of a minimum of 165 degrees to be safe.

Expert tip! Baste the chicken a few times with the honey mustard while it cooks in the oven by brushing or spooning it over the chicken. This will keep the chicken moist and prevent it from drying out.
