This isn’t your normal one skillet recipe. This honey mustard bacon chicken skillet is healthier for a few reasons but still totally craveable!
Serve up this bold honey mustard chicken recipe with a loaf of crusty artisan bread and a bright, fresh tomato cucumber salad, and you have a winning dinner the whole family will love!
A while back, we made honey mustard bacon brats and let me tell you, they are delicious. Like major good. It’s hard to want a brat any other way now. But as Cade and I were cleaning up dinner he said, “That sauce tastes so good I want to eat it on everything!” and as he snagged one last piece of saucy bacon from the pan to gobble it down before washing the skillet, I had the idea.
This really would be good on anything. Like really. At first I was really going to go to town and make a crunchy chicken but Cade and I are trying really hard to make good eating choices during the week, which is difficult today as I just photographed the best, oh my goodness amazing pumpkin cookies ever and I can hear them calling my name from the kitchen, “Carrian, you know you could have just half a cookie and you’d feel so happy…”
Ingredients for Honey Mustard Bacon Chicken Skillet
Ok, I digress…back to this tasty one skillet chicken recipe! Here are the ingredients you will need:
- Chicken Thighs: You can use boneless chicken or use bone-in. If you use bone-in chicken, it will just need a little longer to cook through.
- NOTE: Chicken breasts (boneless, skinless) also work great with this recipe if you want a more lean dinner.
- Water: helps with the base of the honey mustard sauce
- Honey: adds flavor and natural sweetness
- Dijon Mustard: any brand works great or you could go with spicy brown mustard too if you want a little kick
- Cilantro: adds a bright pop of freshness
- Bacon: because you never need a reason for bacon
- Olive Oil: helps finish off the sauce and sauteing
- Garlic: adds flavor
The measurements for each ingredient can be found in the recipe card at the end of the post.
Supercharge your cookout side dish game with this Dill Pickle Potato Salad. Classic tender potato salad gets a glow-up with scandalous amounts of dill pickles, pickle relish, pickle seasonings, and hard boiled eggs.
Pickle Potato Salad
You can use any potato you like to make this potato salad. However, I like to use thin-skinned Yukon Gold potatoes. There’s no need to peel them and the texture stays nice for the salad.
If you use new or white potatoes, you don’t need to peel those either. However, if you choose to use a russet or red potato, you’ll want to peel the potatoes for the best results.
Potato Salad with Dill and Pickles
You’ll need the following ingredients for the recipe:
- Yukon Gold potatoes
- mayonnaise
- dill pickle relish
- dried dill
- salt and pepper
- baby dill pickles
- hard-boiled eggs
- green onions
- fresh dill OPTIONAL
We enjoy a good amount of hard-boiled eggs in our potato salads. If you prefer fewer eggs, or not to have a bit of egg in every bite, feel free to reduce the number of eggs for your tastes.
