How to Make Curry Cajun Spiced Chicken

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a 3-quart rectangular baking dish, whisk together 1/4 cup honey, 2 tablespoons water, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) melted butter, 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning, 1 teaspoon curry powder, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
  3. Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts to the baking dish, turning to ensure they are fully coated in the sauce.
  4. Arrange the chicken in a single layer in the baking dish.
  5. Bake uncovered for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  6. Serve the chicken and pan drippings immediately over hot cooked rice. Garnish with fresh parsley or green onions (optional).
