Ingredients

• 1 cup chopped onion
• ground black pepper to taste
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 4 (8 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 10 tablespoons sweet hot mustard, divided
• 1 teaspoon garlic and herb seasoning, or more to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Step 2

Pour olive oil into a bowl. Brush desired amount of olive oil on both sides of each chicken breast; set aside. Pour remaining oil into a 9x13-inch oven-safe glass baking dish. Mix in 2 tablespoons sweet hot mustard.

Step 3

Brush 1 tablespoon sweet hot mustard on 1 side of each breast and season with garlic and herb seasoning and pepper. Transfer to the prepared baking dish, placing the seasoned and mustard-lathered sides down. Repeat to season bare sides. Portion onion and garlic around chicken and put leftover pieces on top.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Cover with aluminum foil and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
