Baked Honey Mustard Chicken

6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup prepared mustard
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley



Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper to taste, and place in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish.

In a small bowl, combine the honey, mustard, basil, paprika, and parsley. Mix well.

Pour 1/2 of this mixture over the chicken, and brush to cover.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Turn chicken pieces over and brush with the remaining 1/2 of the honey mustard mixture.

Bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.

Let cool 10 minutes before serving.
