A delightful twist on a classic baked chicken recipe, featuring a honey-mustard glaze with a hint of curry.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Arrange the chicken breasts in a baking dish, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
Using a baking dish that fits the chicken snugly helps retain moisture.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the honey, mustard, salt, and curry powder until well combined.
Stir continuously to prevent the mixture from burning.
Pour the glaze evenly over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated.
Use a basting brush for even application of the glaze.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 75 minutes, basting with the glaze every 15 minutes.
Basting frequently keeps the chicken moist and flavorful.
Once cooked, let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, making the chicken more tender.
