Notes

For extra flavor, let the chicken marinate in the honey Dijon mixture for an hour before baking. You can use bone-in chicken pieces instead of breasts; just adjust the cooking time accordingly. Consider adding vegetables like carrots or broccoli in the baking dish for a complete one-pan meal.
