I don't remember were I found this recipe but I love this chicken recipe.

I served it with rice and a simple salad:

Chicken with Rosemary, Honey and Mustard

4 Chicken breasts with skin* (**)

1 tablespoon of fresh rosemary, chopped

1 tablespoon of honey

1 tablespoon of a Dijon style mustard; (Don’t use a honey mustard)

Combine rosemary, honey and mustard in a small bowl. Carefully lift the skin and place a teaspoon of the mixture under the skin. Any leftover mixture can be rubbed over the skin. Refrigerate for 1 hour or longer to let the flavor enhance the chicken. Place chicken in a 350 oven for about 30-40 minutes or until the juices run clear.

Serves 4

*The chicken skin can be removed after cooking. It helps retain moisture in the meat.

** I have often had to use skinless chicken breasts. I also put some oil in the bottom of the pan to prevent the chicken breasts from burning to the pan.

 
Yum, fall comfort food--it's COLD, here! Thanks for weekend lunch inspiration.

 
I did; it's a great idea. I'm the one slightly northeast of France. smileys/wink.gif

 
Hi Eva, I have a question on the rosemary in the recipe....

is the rosemary supposed to be fresh rosemary? maybe just a teaspoon instead of a tablespoon. I made this last night and used dried rosemary and really overpowered the chicken.

I didn't think anything of using dried cause I like rosemary so much.

TIA

 
Randi, I'm sorry, I didn't think of it before posting >>>

I use fresh rosemary in this recipe.

The reason is that I bought a rosemart tree and it grows FAST so I'm always using fresh rosemary those days.

I'm sorry I didn't specify that smileys/frown.gif

 
thanks Eva, that's what I figured. should have figured it out while I was making it '-)...

I have tons of rosemary too. I just happened to grab the dried branches sitting on the counter. I'll try again with fresh rosemary.
