Sweet and Spicy Picante Chicken

Here's a really easy and extremely tasty recipe you can put together in minutes. The problem with a recipe this easy is that I really don't have to say much about it, which can result in a very short blog if I don't stretch it out somehow. Right now I'm at a loss for how to make this recipe longer and more interesting, but so far I haven't come up with any ideas.

Normally, I'd have a story to tell about something that happened to me while shopping for the ingredients, or a crazy thing that happened in the kitchen while I was making it. This time, I only needed to buy two things, and Tracey went to get them. So I guess this time I have nothing to talk about. Let's just get to the recipe...

Go ahead and pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees f. You'll be ready before the oven is, since this is such an easy recipe to prepare. If you're going to have rice with it, you'll want to prepare that concurrently.

In a small bowl, mix together the picante sauce, brown sugar, and dijon mustard. Whisk them together until smooth.

Plop your breasts into the baking dish, then pour the mixture over the chicken. Bake for at least 20 minutes, or until the juices run clear and the chicken is cooked through.

We served this tasty dish with white rice and french-cut green beans with slivered almonds. It was so good that we can't wait to make it again. I'm sure you'll agree!
