Ingredients
    For the Marinade:
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp whole grain mustard
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • For the Chicken:
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for grilling)
Instructions
    Prepare the Marinade
  1. 1
    In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and dried thyme.
  2. Marinate the Chicken
  3. 2
    Place the chicken breasts in a ziplock bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor).
  4. Preheat the Grill
  5. 3
    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (200°C / 400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.
  6. Grill the Chicken
  7. 4
    Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Grill for 5-6 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F). Baste with reserved marinade during grilling for extra flavor (optional).
  8. Rest and Serve
  9. 5
    Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice and serve with your favorite sides.
Note
  • Storage: Store leftover chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheating: Reheat gently in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave for 1-2 minutes.
  • Variations: Substitute chicken thighs for a juicier texture or add a touch of cayenne pepper for heat.
  • Serving Suggestions: Serve with a fresh garden salad, roasted potatoes, or grilled asparagus.
