Honey Mustard Chicken

Serves 4

Ingredients:
8 Chicken Thighs or 4 Chicken Breasts
4tbsp Wholegrain Mustard
4tbsp Clear Honey
Salt and Pepper to taste
Optional:
2 Carrots
1 Onion

Method:
  1. Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F, Gas Mark 5). Put the chicken in a single layer in a roasting pan.
  2. If using the carrots and onions, chop (carrots into batons, onions into strips) and put into the roasting pan (or in a separate dish if you wish).
  3. Mix the mustard, honey, salt and pepper and brush the mixture over the chicken and vegetables.
  4. Cook for 25-30minutes, brushing the chicken with the juices occasionally, until cooked through.
Serving:
I usually have this with basmati rice, yummy! The serving suggestion for it is with a tomato and red onion salad so that's a lighter option.
