Soy Mustard Chicken

Ridiculously easy and delicious.  All you have to do is combine the ingredients for the sauce, pour over the chiken and microwave! The perfect blend of soy sauce and whole grain mustard brings addicting flavour, which also goes so well with rice.  You'll be surprised how such a simple, microwave recipe can turn out so good!

Ingredients (3-4 servings):

500g  Chicken thighs

1TBS Butter

1/2 TBS Corn starch & 1/2 TBS Water (combined)

Salt and pepper 

Sauce 

*1TBS Whole Grain Mustard (the kind in a jar, not the "mustard seed")

*1/4 cup White Wine

*2TBS Japanese Soy Sauce (such as Kikkoman or Yamasa)


1. Using a fork, make tiny holes on the chicken on both sides, and lightly season the chicken with salt and pepper.


2. Place the chicken in a  microwave-safe dish in one layer, and pour the sauce over.

3. Crumble the butter on top of the chicken. Loosely cover the dish with plastic wrap and microwave for 4-5 minutes. (The time will depend on the amount / thickness of the chicken, but Do NOT overcook!)

4. Once the chicken is fully cooked, take out the chicken and immediately add the corn starch mixture into the sauce. Stir until the sauce becomes thicker.

5. Pour the sauce over the chicken and serve with rice!
