Steps:

• Peel and chop the onion finely.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet, and sauté the onion until translucent.
• Add the chicken pieces, turning to lightly brown on both sides.
• Add the chicken stock and turn the heat to high.
• Add the honey, mustard and black pepper.
• Cook until the stock is reduced to a thick sauce.
• Reduce the heat, and continue cooking until the chicken browns and the mixture begins to caramelize - usually just a few minutes more.
• Turn the chicken to let the other side brown a bit, but remove the pan from the heat if the sauce gets as dark as you want it.
• This has a fairly mild mustard flavour; stir in a little more mustard just before serving if you want more bite.
