Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon dried thyme

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper until well combined.

    Marinate the Chicken: Place chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the honey mustard marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).

      Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill (or grill pan) to medium-high heat.

        Grill the Chicken: Remove chicken from the marinade, letting any excess drip off. Place the chicken on the preheated grill and cook for 6-7 minutes on one side. Flip and continue grilling for another 6-7 minutes or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

          Rest and Serve: Once cooked, remove chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm with your choice of sides, such as grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
