Ingredients
  

  • 4 Chicken Breasts
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Method
 

Prepare the Marinade
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Marinate the Chicken
  1. Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat the Grill
  1. Heat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard any excess marinade.
Grill the Chicken
  1.  Grill the chicken for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Brush some reserved marinade on top during grilling for extra flavor (optional).
Serve
  1. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Pair with summer sides like corn on the cob or a fresh salad.
