I had 30 minutes to make supper and some chicken thawed in the fridge. I knew supper had to be simple and FAST!
I was so happy I had all the ingredients for this Baked Mustard Lime Chicken I had been eye balling in my “To Try” pile, because I knew it was my answer for supper. Coupled with some garden green beans and Uncle Ben’s Wild Rice, we had ourselves a feast!
This chicken is REALLLLLLY flavorful! The Dijon and lime-cilantro flavors are amazing!
