A delightful twist on a classic chicken dish, featuring a honey-mustard glaze that brings out the natural flavors of the chicken.
Mix the smoked paprika, fine salt, freshly ground cinnamon, toasted cumin, and freshly ground black pepper in a ziploc bag.
Shake the bag well to ensure the spices are evenly combined.
Add the chicken breasts to the bag and shake until they are evenly coated with the spice mix.
Let the chicken sit in the spice mix for 30 minutes to enhance the flavor.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken breasts until fully cooked, about 10 minutes per side.
Ensure the skillet is preheated to achieve a nice sear on the chicken.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and keep warm. Lower the heat to low and add the honey, butter, and Dijon mustard to the skillet.
Stir continuously to prevent the glaze from burning.
Return the chicken to the skillet and coat it evenly with the glaze.
Turn the chicken several times to ensure it is fully coated with the glaze.
Serve the glazed chicken with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables or steamed rice.
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for added color and flavor.
