I marinated my chicken overnight and cooked this last night. It is delicious! Everybody liked it and has requested it again. I loved the honey mustard sauce, it is just like what you get at the resturants. For the adults, we dressed it up with shredded lettuce and chopped tomato and a little sliced green onions. The kids liked it with sour cream instead of the honey mustard (it is a little spicey). Thank you for sharing this recipe! It was a treat, we felt like we were dining out.
