Baked Honey Mustard Chicken

I found this recipe in a magazine.

Sadly...I can't remember which one.

It was either Cooking Light or Clean Eating.

I'm leaning toward Clean Eating.

Either way, both of these magazines are great resources for some healthy recipes.  They typically have the calorie content included with the recipe so that you know what you're getting yourself into.

Here's one I tried today which both my husband and I loved!  Here is how I prepared it (slightly different than what they had).

Baked Honey Mustard Chicken

2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 cup grainy mustard (I used normal mustard...I don't like it grainy)
7 tbsp honey
1/2 tsp thyme
pinch cayenne pepper
2 lb chicken
2 tbsp almonds (I didn't have any, so I left this off)
2 tbsp fresh parsley (again...didn't have any)

In small bowl, mix garlic, mustard, honey, thyme, and cayenne.  Coat chicken with mixture and refigerate 8 hours.  (They had you leave off 1/3 of the mixture and add it to the tops later.  I skipped this step and it was still quite flavorful.)

Arrange oven rack in the highest position.  Line baking sheet with foil and mist with cooking spray.
Remove chicken from marinade.  Shake of excess marinade and transfer it to the baking sheet.

Broil 7-10 minutes till the tops are golden.  Turn and broil 3-5 more minutes.

Sprinkle with almonds and parsley.  Serve.
