Recipe: Jalapeno Orange Mustard Chicken (using orange marmalade)

JALAPENO ORANGE MUSTARD CHICKEN

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
1 tablespoon chopped jalapeno pepper (or to taste)
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon oil
pinch ground cayenne pepper (optional)
4 skinless chicken breast halves (use chicken breast halves with bone in)

Combine the mustard, marmalade, jalapeno, lime juice and oil. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper if you want it hotter.

Cut a pocket in the side of each chicken breast and spoon a little of the mustard sauce into the opening. Baste the tops of the chicken with the mustard. Place chicken on a rack in a roasting pan.

Bake in a pre-heated 350 degree F oven for 35-40 minutes or until chicken tests done. Baste once during cooking with the mustard mixture.
