Danielle found this recipe on the back of a Tone's Lemon Pepper Seasoning jar and made it for us a few weeks ago. It was a big hit! Even my husband, who complains he doesn't like chicken, said he loved it. The chicken was moist and the lemon honey-mustard sauce was delicious. Danielle added the extra step of pounding the chicken, but we've all decided that it really added to success of the recipe.
The nutritional value is just an estimate as I was only able to guess at the portions for the sauce when I entered it into MyPyramidtracker.gov.
Lemon Honey Mustard Chicken Breasts
½ cup honey
1/3 cup Dijon mustard
1 ½ tsp lemon pepper seasoning
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp margarine (reduced fat type), melted
6 or 7 medium chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
Blend the first five ingredients in a bowl and set aside. Place chicken in a Ziploc bag and pound with a meat mallet or heavy skillet until chicken is about ½ inch thick. Marinate the chicken in about half of the sauce for 20-30 minutes.
Grill on barbeque on medium-high heat for approximately 20 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink inside. Brush chicken with additional marinade while cooking chicken on the grill.

Positive thought for the day: A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely. ~Roald Dahl
