Crusted Honey Mustard Baked Chicken


I found this recipe through my new favorite friend, Pinterest and amazing does not even begin to describe how delicious this chicken was.  It is actually a weight watchers recipe, but it tasted sinfully good.  Also, it only took me about 10 minutes to prep everything and 10-13 minutes to bake everything and about 5 minutes to clean up (I love you aluminum foil).  The hard part was not going back for seconds or thirds. 

If you love eating healthy and are always looking for new ways to make chicken, this is a definite must try dish.


Here is the recipe:

Chicken Ingredients:
1 spray(s) cooking spray   
2/3 cup(s) lite honey mustard dressing   
1/8 tsp table salt   
1/8 tsp black pepper   
2 tsp dill, freshly chopped     
1 medium uncooked scallion(s), finely sliced   
1 cup(s) cornflake crumbs     
1 pound(s) uncooked boneless skinless chicken breast(s), four 4 oz pieces (I chose to use

Asparagus Ingredients:
1 bunch of asparagus (use as little or as much as you want)
olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 425°F. Coat a shallow pan with cooking spray.
In a small bowl, combine honey mustard dressing, salt, pepper, dill and scallions; remove 1/3 cup and set aside.
Place cornflake crumbs in a shallow bowl. Dip chicken into dressing mixture and then cornflake crumbs; place in prepared pan.
Bake until chicken is golden and no longer pink in center, about 15 minutes.
Drizzle remaining dressing mixture (the 1/3 cup that was set aside) over chicken breasts and serve. Yields 1 piece of chicken and about 1 1/3 tablespoons of dressing per serving.
For the asparagus, simply cover a pan in foil.  Trim the ends off of the asparagus (about an 1 ½ inches).  Lay on pan, drizzle with olive oil and roll asparagus in olive oil to coat.  Season with salt and pepper to taste.  Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until tender crisp.

I hope you all enjoy this one!  I know I cannot wait to make it again.

Stuffed,
