Dijon Lemon Grilled Chicken

I wanted a new chicken recipe today, and my mum loves mustard chicken, so I came up with this recipe and it turned out great! Next time I'm going to double the quantity and coat the chicken with 1/2 the marinade. The 2nd half I will heat and serve as a side sauce to the chicken.

Ingredients

• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
• 1 tablespoon honey
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• ⅓ cup olive oil
• 5 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 1 tablespoon mustard seeds
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (such as Clovis®)

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Mix olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, mustard seeds, honey, black pepper, and allspice together in a bowl.

Step 2

Cut small slits in a crosswise-pattern in each chicken breast to help the mustard marinade soak into the chicken. Add chicken to the mustard marinade; toss to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 6 hours.

Step 3

Remove chicken from marinade and sprinkle with salt. Discard the leftover marinade.

Step 4

Lightly oil a grill pan and place over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Cook chicken in the grill pan until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 7 minutes per side.
