Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375F. Line roasting pan with foil. Spray the rack with cooking spray.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, honey, lemon juice, salt and pepper until smooth. Stir in the parsley and tarragon. Set aside 1/4 cup of the mixture.
Step 3
Loosen the skin from each chicken breast to form a pocket. Spoon about 1 Tbsp of mustard mixture into each pocket.
Step 4
Place chicken breasts skin-side up on prepared rack in prepared pan. Bake until chicken is cooked through, about 35 minutes. Place on serving plates; garnish with tarragon sprigs. Serve with reserved honey-mustard mixture.
Instead of placing sauce under chicken skin, brush it over skinless chicken breasts. Bake as directed in step for, basting occasionally with remaining sauce.
