Instructions:
Prepare the marinade:
1. In a bowl, mix the mustard, honey, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Marinate the chicken:
2. Place the chicken in a dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (4 hours for more intense flavor).
Cook the chicken:
In a skillet:
3. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sear the chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden and fully cooked, basting with the leftover marinade for extra flavor.
In the oven:
4. Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F). Place the chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20 minutes, brushing with the marinade halfway through.
Serve:
5. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Pair this chicken with mashed potatoes, grilled vegetables, or a crisp salad.
