This Easy Mustard Chicken is healthy and made with only 4 ingredients! Ready in under 30 minutes, this makes a great weeknight meal.
What do you make on a weekday night when you come home late and have close to no ingredients in your house?
No seriously, I want to know. I need ideas! And not ideas like “order a pizza”. I have already become the master of that idea.
This recipe has been a staple at my house for the past couple of weeks. 4 ingredients, and ready in 30 minutes, you can have a delicious, satisfying meal in less time than it takes you to watch your favorite TV show.
I will never go hungry on a weekday again! And this time, it’s NOT because of the ordered in pizza!

This chicken sounds so good and easy! I tend to make quesadillas or burritos when I need a seriously instant dinner. Tuna pasta salad is good too!

My husband was just talking about a chicken recipe that his Mom used to make similar to this. Can't get much easier than 4 ingredients! Definitely going to try it! If you need another easy chicken recipe, I like to sauté a little garlic in olive oil, toss in the chicken breasts, cover it with balsamic, and add a little sage.

Mmm so simple, yet packed with flavours, this looks fantastic 😀
My go to emergency weeknight meals are usually home made stir fries with whatever I have at hand 😛 It works a treat, as I usually always have the oils for the sauce anyway, only need some vegetables, noodles and some sort of protein, et voilâ! Now I want me some mustard chicken though, dang! Thanks for the recipe Cathleen! x
