Ingredients

  • 4 tbsps extra virgin olive oil, divided
  • 1 shallot, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup wholegrain mustard
  • 1/4 cup runny honey
  • 2 tbsps Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • 1/4 tsp dried red chilli flakes
  • 3 medium zucchini, sliced into rounds
  • 1 cup of cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions

Preheat your oven to 390 degrees fahrenheit.
To make the honey mustard sauce, heat 2 tbsps oil in a small saucepan over a medium heat, then add the shallots and garlic.
Stir fry the garlic and shallots for around 2 minutes until golden, then add the wholegrain mustard, Dijon mustard, honey, paprika and chilli flakes and stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then continue to boil over a medium heat until thickened. Stir frequently.
In a large bowl, toss the zucchini and tomatoes in the remaining olive oil along with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
Arrange 4 large square shaped pieces of aluminum foil, around 16" in size.
Divide the zucchini and tomatoes between the pieces of foil and add a chicken breast alongside the vegetables. Coat the chicken in the honey mustard glaze.
Fold up the sides of the foil and seal, to ensure the chicken will steam cook without any heat or juices escaping.
Place the foil packets on a baking tray and cook in the centre of the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked.
