Re: Brown Sugar & Mustard Chicken Breasts

The recipe in the original post was put out years ago by the Perdue Chicken people.  I save anything that looks easy!

 

I agree it can apply nicely to other meats. 

 

I often mix maple syrup (instead of brown sugar) with various types of mustard for use on pork tenderloin roasts and salmon.
