Honey Mustard Chicken With Mushrooms

New chicken recipes are always welcome, right? I feel like every family has their favorites (pad krapow gai is ours), but at the same time, it’s nice to try something new every once in a while. This honey mustard chicken with mushrooms was the result of that try-something-new urge. And I’m really glad I did since it turned out great.

Honey Mustard Chicken With Mushrooms

To make this honey mustard chicken, stir together a sauce of yellow and grainy mustard and honey in a small bowl and set it aside. Next, saute onions, mushrooms, and garlic in a skillet. Add the chicken, pour the sauce over the top, and put the whole thing in the oven to cook. An oven-proof skillet is really awesome for this part. 

While it’s cooking I usually make a veggie side or salad to go with the chicken. This recipe has some really delicious pan sauce when it’s done cooking so sometimes I serve it over rice or cauliflower rice.

One-Pan Meals

My favorite way to cook is with one pan. I have a couple of beautiful ceramic skillets that transfer easily from stovetop to oven. Fewer pans to scrub is always a win. 

While it is really fantastic to have oven-proof skillets, this honey mustard chicken isn’t technically a one-pan meal recipe since I don’t make the whole meal in one pan. 

However, on busy nights I do sometimes make it into a one-pan meal. I add broccoli or another vegetable prior to putting it in the oven. Just make sure you choose a hearty enough vegetable to withstand the long cook time. Or add it in partway through.

Here are some of my favorite one-pan meals:

• Bacon Chicken Alfredo stovetop meal
• Baked Salmon and Asparagus sheet pan meal
• Broccoli Quiche with Bacon – use an oven-proof skillet!
• Pretty much every stir fry is a one-pan stovetop meal, and I’ve got lots!
• I’ve been thinking lately that I need more sheet pan meals in my life. This one’s not mine, but I’m thinking I could do something like this with my grain-free meatloaf recipe and homemade BBQ sauce

So, if, like me, you love easy, but still healthy cooking, give this honey mustard chicken recipe a try!

Notes

I like to serve this over rice or cauliflower rice. You can also experiment with adding a vegetable when you add the chicken to the baking dish.
