Why I Love This Recipe

Some recipes earn a permanent spot in the dinner rotation, and this is definitely one of them. The honey mustard sauce is sweet, tangy, buttery, and so good you’ll want to drizzle it over everything on your plate. Toss it all onto one sheet pan, let the oven do the work, and dinner is practically effortless with hardly any dishes waiting for you afterward.

Enjoying The Leftovers

Leftover chicken is just as versatile as it is delicious. Slice it up for salads, grain bowls, wraps, or sandwiches, or simply reheat it for another easy dinner.

Storing

Store the chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. If you have any extra sauce in the pan, spoon it over the chicken before storing to help keep it nice and juicy.

Reheating

Warm the chicken in the microwave or in a 350 degree oven until heated through. Spoon some of the honey mustard sauce over the top before serving to bring back all that sweet and tangy flavor.
