Crispy Honey Dijon Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Place chicken in an ungreased 11x7-in. baking dish. Combine remaining ingredients; pour over chicken. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until juices run clear, turning and basting with pan juices every 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Pound chicken breasts until they are thin.
• Stir together mustard, honey, salt and pepper.
• Spread or paint dijon mixture generously on chicken breasts.
• Crush Ritz crackers into fine crumbs.
• Press crumbs onto mustard coated chicken until chicken is thoroughly coated with crumbs.
• Place chicken on a baking sheet or jellyroll pan and bake at 350F for 30-40 minutes or until crispy, turning chicken once during cooking, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Lightly spray the bottom and sides of a 10-inch casserole dish (or any baking pan large enough to hold the chicken breasts). Place the chicken breasts in the coated baking pan.
• With a wooden spoon, mix the mustard, honey, apricot preserves, and ginger in a small mixing bowl until well blended. Brush (or spoon) the mustard mixture over the tops of the chicken breasts. Bake the chicken, uncovered, for 30-45 minutes (depending on thickness of the breasts).
• After 15 minutes of baking turn over each chicken breast, spoon sauce over them, and continue baking for the remaining 15 minutes, or until breasts are thoroughly cooked.
• Transfer the chicken breasts to individual plates. Spoon the sauce over each chicken breast serving.
• (For my kids, I like to put their portion of the sauce into a small condiment cup so they can use it as a dipping sauce. What can I say -- it's a kid thing.).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Put the butter in a 9 or 10 inch square baking dish and put it in the oven while it is heating up.
• Don't use a dish that is too big or the butter will end up spreading out too far from the chicken. This whole first part is very important and will help make your chicken end up crispy.
• In one bowl, whisk together the mustard and half and half.
• In another bowl, mix together the cracker crumbs and the cheese.
• When the oven is completely heated up and the butter is sizzling in the baking dish, remove the pan from the oven and set it on a trivet on the counter next to your two mixtures.
• Dip the chicken in the wet mixture; dredge in the crumb mixture.
• This step is important. Put the chicken down in the dish and turn it over right away. The idea is to put it in the butter briefly and turn it over so the butter side is up. It makes the chicken get evenly crispy. I use this technique for all of my oven "frying" because it works so well.
• Bake for approximately 45 minutes or so, depending on the thickness of the chicken breasts.
• Leave them in there until the coating is browned real nicely. Mine are usually perfect at 45 minutes.
