Gluten Free Living – 2025
I’m always looking for new ways to bake chicken, so when I found this Honey Mustard Baked Chicken recipe I thought i’d give it a try. I made this EASY 6-ingredient recipe with chicken thighs, rather than chicken breasts or a whole, cut-up chicken. I liked the simplicity of this recipe especially for week night dinners when you’re trying to whip up something rather quickly.

Last June, about a week before Father’s Day, I made a batch of this tasty Honey Mustard Baked Chicken. I added Seasoned Oven Fries and Skinny Roasted Vine-Ripe Tomatoes. One of the nice things I noticed about this entree is that it reheats nicely. I tossed it in my toaster oven for about 10 minutes and it was great reheated as leftovers. I’ve never been able to eat chicken that’s microwaved to heat it up. But if it’s rebaked or roasted in the oven or toaster oven it doesn’t have an odd taste. So that’s what I do.
If you want an easy, no-fuss recipe for dinner, give Honey Mustard Baked Chicken a try. It goes with just about any side dish. It’s naturally gluten free too, for those looking for healthier dinner options. You can also grill the chicken and use the honey-mustard sauce to baste with. Enjoy.

Taste of Home no longer has a search engine that allows you to search recipes by title. Most of the time, you have to weed through thousands of recipes in collections. If any link is to be found, I find direct links through google, not their own website. I could not locate a direct page for this recipe. But it is in the cookbook noted above.
