An easy after work dinner. Honey Mustard Chicken, each to prepare and quick and tasty.

After work when I’ve worked flat-out and happy to be in the familiar surroundings of home I want an easy to cook dinner that’s quick and tasty.  I want nothing more than to slam something in the oven, prep some green veg and then sit down and eat with my people.

Normally cooking is fun and relaxing for me especially when family and friends come round but after work, it’s different.  I want to tick off the major food groups, eat something tasty and if I can cook double for a make ahead dinner for another day then I’m happy.  This honey mustard chicken dish ticks all those boxes.  Cooking double means you’ve got chicken sandwiches for lunch the next day, or fajitas for another dinner and maybe even the base for a chicken pasta dish for another after that.  Smug doesn’t even come close.
