Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 1 medium onion finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup whole-grain mustard
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 3 medium zucchini thinly sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 8 ounces (250g) chicken breasts boneless, skinless, slice into halves
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (410°F). Prepare 4 sheets of aluminum foil, each measuring 16" x 12", and fold up the edges to form shallow boats.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic, stirring occasionally until golden brown and fragrant. Add the whole-grain mustard, honey, Dijon mustard, sweet paprika, and crushed red pepper flakes. Stir and cook for about 2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens. Transfer to a bowl and let it cool.
- Add the zucchini and cherry tomatoes to a bowl, and season with salt and ground black pepper. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and toss well.
- Pat dry the chicken breasts with paper towels and season with salt and ground black pepper.
- Divide the vegetables into four equal portions and arrange them on the prepared foil sheets, placing the chicken breasts in the center. Top the chicken with the honey mustard sauce. Cover each packet with another piece of foil and seal tightly.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 73°C (165°F) using a meat thermometer. Carefully open the foil packets and serve immediately, garnished with freshly chopped parsley.
Notes
- Recipe Source: Delish
- Chicken breasts can be substituted with chicken thighs.
- Seal the foil packets tightly to ensure the chicken and vegetables cook evenly and retain moisture.
- Taste the honey mustard sauce before adding it to the chicken, and adjust the seasoning according to your preference. You can add more honey for sweetness or more mustard for tanginess. Omit the crushed red pepper flakes to make it kid-friendly.
- Do not overcook the meat. Keep an eye on the baking time, as cooking times may depend on the thickness of the chicken breasts. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 73°C (165°F) to ensure the meat is fully cooked.
