A recipe we saved from Rachel Schultz, adapted from The I Love Trader Joe’s Cookbook. The full recipe, with their photos and notes, is on their site.

She calls it “The World’s Best Chicken.” It’s a bold claim.

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
