Paleo Rosemary Honey Mustard Chicken
Paleo Rosemary Honey Mustard Chicken Recipe – chicken marinated in a rosemary honey mustard sauce and baked in the oven. Ready in 30 minutes! Gluten free, grain free, dairy free, refined sugar free, soy free, clean eating, real food.
If I had to sum up my cooking style in 1 recipe, this paleo rosemary honey mustard chicken might be the one.
It represents everything I love about cooking! Taking a healthy protein, adding some simple and fresh flavors to it to jazz it up to the next level, the oven does most of the work for me, and it is ready in 30 minutes. My cooking philosophy in a nutshell.
I’ve shared so many quick, healthy and delicious chicken dinners in the past, and love having another winner to add to my arsenal.
You’ve all loved my paleo + whole30 chicken piccata, my paleo + whole30 almond crusted pesto chicken, my paleo lemon honey chicken & asparagus skillet, my paleo + whole30 chimichurri chicken skewers, my paleo + whole30 grilled lemon rosemary chicken, the list goes on and on.
You can never have enough healthy chicken dinner recipes, right?
The best part of this chicken is the rosemary honey mustard marinade. So simple! I use both grainy mustard and dijon mustard.
You can marinade it for as little as 10 minutes if you’re in a hurry. Or if you’ve planned ahead it can marinade for a whole day.
Then, just lay the marinated chicken on a wire rimmed baking sheet, bake for 20 minutes, and dinner is ready!
This paleo rosemary honey mustard chicken is such a winner because both grownups and kids love it. My 2 year old gobbles it down, and so does my husband. Don’t you get so happy serving a dinner everyone loves?
I especially love how healthy it is! Paleo, gluten free, grain free, dairy free, refined sugar free, soy free, clean eating, real food.
Paleo Rosemary Honey Mustard Chicken
Ingredients
- 4 6-ounce chicken breasts (I get my chicken from ButcherBox, which I highly recommend)
- 1/4 cup grainy mustard
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped rosemary
- 2 garlic cloves, grated or finely minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Kitchen Equipment Needed:
- Medium mixing bowl
- Rimmed baking sheet with wire rack
- Parchment paper or aluminum foil, for easy cleanup
- Instant read meat thermometer
Instructions
- In a medium size mixing bowl combine the grainy mustard, honey, dijon mustard, rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Add the chicken breasts and marinate for at least 10 minutes, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
- Preheat oven to 425ºF with the oven rack in the upper 1/3 of the oven. Line the rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil, and place the wire rack inside.
- Place the marinated chicken breasts on the wire rimmed baking sheet and roast the chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165ºF, about 15-20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Serve warm.

Hello! I’m thinking of making this tonight for my hubby (I don’t eat meat). Can you tell me if a wire-rimmed pan is necessary? I was hoping to just use a baking sheet. Thank you!
You can use a baking sheet! I like a wire rack so it’s up out of the juices, but definitely not necessary. Hope you enjoy!
This looks super yum, I’m sharing it with my sister.
This makes me so happy! I hope you both love it!
Mustard and rosemary are aromatic. I have tried the recipe and it was so delicious that I can’t explain it in words. Thanks for the recipe, now I will try Rosemary Mustard Skillet Chicken.
I love to hear that it was so delicious that you can’t explain it in words Ainsley! Love that!
I’ve made these twice. Once as chicken wings and once as a glaze on baked chicken breasts. Both times were delicious.
I love that you have already made them twice Colin. Making them as chicken wings and baked breasts is so creative. So glad they were delicious both times you made them.

Thank you so much for your kind words about my site Fincher. I am so glad you find it helpful. So glad you liked my honey mustard chicken too!
This is a great recipe Natalie! It has become a huge favorite in our household. We use thighs instead of breasts because they keep so moist and you can serve it with so many different vegetables and starches.
I tell people about your site as often as I can!
You can’t go wrong with chicken thighs Billy. They do always stay so moist and are budget friendly.
Thank you so much for sharing my site with your friends! That really means the world to me!
This was incredibly delicious, thank you for sharing!! I don’t love oven baked breasts so I prepared on stovetop but grilled would also be amazing.
