INGREDIENTS

1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup olive oil
2 shallots, peeled and halved (optional)
1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme
2 tsp chopped fresh rosemary
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
3/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 2 lbs)
1 1/3 cups black or brown dry lentils
4 cups chicken stock

INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare the marinade. In a bowl, combine the honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, thyme, and rosemary. Stir to combine and set it aside.

Marinate the chicken. Lay the chicken in a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle with the salt and black pepper on all sides. Pour the honey mustard marinade over the breasts, coating them completely. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour or up to 3 hours.

Cook the chicken. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Remove the cover from the chicken and add the shallots. Place in the preheated oven. Bake until the thickest part of the breasts registers 160°F, 25-35 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes, during which time the carry-over cooking will bring the internal temperature of the breasts up to 165°F.

Meanwhile, prepare the lentils. In a medium pot, combine the lentils and chicken stock. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce to a simmer. Stir occasionally and cook until the lentils are tender, 17-20 minutes. Drain the excess liquid.

Assemble the dish. Once the chicken has rested, remove the breasts from the baking dish. Add the cooked lentils to the honey mustard sauce in the dish and stir until the lentils are well-coated. Place the chicken on top and serve.

From my farm to your home. 🏡

My name is Kaleb Wyse and here, you will find delicious recipes, videos from my farm, garden, and fun home projects. My knowledge has been earned from years of home cooks and farmers in my family. https://wyseguide.com

A farm is much more than a house to live in; it’s a lifestyle. My passion for gardening and landscaping came from outdoor work with my mom in our expansive farm yard, my love for baking came from innumerable short walks to my grandma’s house to make cookies, and as a farmer, my dad taught me that we are the stewards of our land.

So whether you live in a city center or have decided rural life is for you, I hope to inspire you with the projects and recipes I use in daily life. We can’t all live on a farm, but we all need farms in our lives. From the dirt in my vegetable garden to the flour in my kitchen, I’ll show you everything I love to do.
