How to Make Sweet Crunchy Mustard Chicken
- Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C).
- In a small bowl, combine 1 cup panko bread crumbs, 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon dried tarragon (or basil), 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Spread 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard evenly over each chicken breast. Sprinkle generously with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
- Place chicken breasts, skin-side up (if using bone-in, skin-on), in a 9x13 inch glass or ceramic baking dish. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray for extra crispiness.
- Roast in the upper third of the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the crumbs are golden brown and crispy. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
- Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
