Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/3 cup honey

1/4 cup Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon dried thyme

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, dried thyme, and a pinch of salt and pepper until well combined. This will create a sweet and tangy marinade.

      Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and pour the honey mustard marinade over the top, ensuring each piece is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the fridge for more flavor).

        After marinating, cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.

          Remove the foil, then bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C) and has a golden crust.

            Once done, remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

              Drizzle any remaining marinade from the baking dish over the sliced chicken and garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color.

                  - Presentation Tips: Serve the chicken sliced on a plate alongside steamed vegetables or a fresh salad, drizzled with additional honey mustard sauce, and sprinkle with extra parsley for a vibrant presentation.
