Make easy Honey Dijon Chicken for two, featuring pan-seared chicken breasts, coated in seasoned breadcrumbs and honey mustard sauce.
Lay 1 chicken breast on plastic wrap on a cutting board. Cover with 2nd piece of plastic wrap (to prevent splatters). Use flat side of a meat mallet to pound the chicken until it's flattened to ¼" thickness. Transfer chicken to paper towels; pat dry. Repeat with remaining chicken breast. Discard plastic wrap when finished.
Lightly season chicken (on both sides) with salt, pepper and garlic powder, dividing spices evenly between the chicken breasts.
Season Breadcrumbs: Place breadcrumbs, parsley and ½ teaspoon of Dijon mustard on a large dinner plate; stir until Dijon is blended, and ingredients are well-combined. Set aside. NOTE: A large plate is recommended because you will spread out the breadcrumbs and lay the chicken on them later, to cover.
Make sauce: Put honey and 1 Tablespoon Dijon in a small bowl; stir to combine. Use pastry brush to apply sauce to BOTH sides of chicken (1 piece at a time). Lay chicken on the bread crumb topping. Dredge until both sides are covered. Press breadcrumbs into the sauce to adhere. Transfer chicken to a platter; repeat with remaining chicken.
Melt butter in large skillet on medium heat. When skillet is HOT (but not smoking), carefully add chicken breasts. Let chicken cook undisturbed for 4 minutes; carefully turn chicken to the other side. The top should be browned and crispy. Continue to cook the other side of the chicken for 3-4 minutes, or until fully cooked through. When done, remove chicken from skillet; serve and enjoy!
