  1. Whisk olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl until smooth.
  2. Place chicken in a bag or dish, pour marinade over, and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 8 hours.
  3. Remove chicken, pat dry, and sear in a hot oiled skillet for 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through. Rest, slice, and serve.

Notes

Marinating time is not included in the prep or cook times. Plan for at least 30 minutes, and up to 8 hours for the deepest flavor. Reserve a little fresh marinade before it touches raw chicken if you want a sauce for serving.
