Easy Savory & Sweet One Pan Dairy-Free Honey Mustard Chicken

by

Looking for an easy weeknight meal everyone will love? Look no further than these savory & sweet honey mustard chicken thighs! Tender, juicy chicken thighs are pan seared to perfection, smothered in a lovingly layered sweet and savory sauce. Tangy mustard, acidic white wine, and bright lemon juice are balanced by sweet honey, savory bone broth, and rich umami from the onion. This combination brings balance and complexity in a sauce that took minutes to make. Don’t worry, it will be our secret! All this ready in just 30 minutes? It doesn’t get better than this! Try this recipe today!

You can easily replace the chicken thighs with breasts, or even try pork chops! I love serving this alongside cauliflower rice, or with my Crispy Parmesan Brussel Sprouts.
