Honey Mustard Chicken

Ingredients

• ¼ cup whole grain mustard
• ¼ cup Dijon mustard
• ⅓ cup honey
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• juice of 1 lemon
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• ½ teaspoon paprika
• ½ teaspoon dried thyme
• salt and pepper (to taste)
• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound)

Instructions

1. Making the Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole grain mustard, Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper. Reserve a 1/4 cup of the marinade for brushing on the chicken.
2. Marinating the Chicken: Pour the marinade into a gallon Ziploc bag. Add the chicken breasts to the bag and massage the marinade into the meat until the chicken is well coated. Lay the bag flat on a large plate or baking sheet and place in the refrigerator. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours.
3. Grilling the Chicken: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and oil the grates. Remove the chicken from the bag and place on a clean plate. Discard the bag with the marinade.
4. Place the chicken on the grill and cook, covered, for 5 to 7 minutes, depending on the thickness of chicken. Flip and brush with reserved 1/4 cup of marinade, not the marinade you discarded in the bag. Cook for an additional 5 to 7 minutes. The internal temperature should be 165°F.
5. Allow the chicken to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing or serving.
