Honey Mustard Chicken

Makes two meals for six people, three meals for four or four meals for three people!

12 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup honey
1 cup prepared mustard
2 tsp dried basil
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp dried parsley

Preheat oven to to 350F. In a 9x13 baking dish, lightly greased, place chicken breasts. In a small bowl, combine honey, mustard, basil, paprika and parsley, mixing well. Pour half of mixture over chicken, using a spoon to make sure that all the chicken has some sauce on top to prevent chicken from drying out. Lightly cover with tin foil. Bake for 30 minutes, remove foil and turn chicken over. Pour remaining sauce over chicken and cook for 10 minutes or until chicken is cooked.

Allow to sit for 10-15 minutes, then divide chicken into appropriate freezer containers for the servings you desire (makes 2 meals for six people; 3 meals for four people; or four meals for three people). Allow to cool and freeze.

On cooking day, thaw completely in fridge (take it out the night before or morning of). In a preheated 350F oven, cook for 20-45 minutes depending on number of breasts, or until completely hot throughout. Serve!
