- ⅓ cup honey
- 3 Tablespoons whole grain mustard (the one with the seeds)
- 1½ Tablespoons minced garlic
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- salt to season
- 5 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- ½ cup bacon bits
- 1½ cups milk
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water
- 2 green onions chopped
- 2 Tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
In a large, shallow dish, combine the honey, mustard, garlic, oil and salt to taste. Coat chicken evenly in the sauce. Set aside.
Heat a nonstick pan (or skillet) over medium heat. Sear chicken fillets on each side in the oil until it just begins to brown (about 3 minutes per side -- not completely cooked through as we will finish them in the sauce).
Add any remaining honey mustard sauce into the pan along with milk. Bring to a simmer while stirring occasionally to mix the favors through the sauce (about 3 minutes), until the chicken is cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a warm plate.
Pour the cornstarch mixture into the centre of the pan, mixing it through the sauce until it thickens. Place chicken back into the pan; coat with the sauce. Top with the bacon and garnish with parsley and green onions.
