How to make Gluten-free Garlic Maple Dijon Chicken
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 450 degrees. Grease a large enough baking dish with olive oil.
Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic to the pan and cook until tender and lightly browned. Take off the heat and whisk in the maple syrup and mustard. Next, add the spices and mix well.
Step 3: In the prepared baking dish, lay the chicken breasts and sprinkle them with herbamere and freshly ground pepper. On top, pour the garlic mustard mixture, covering the chicken.
Step 4: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes, uncovered, or until the chicken is no longer pink in the middle. Note that the cooking time varies depending on the size of the chicken.
