This recipe is from the blog Framed and it looked pretty and simple.  Simplicity is always a plus with cooking.  I certainly enjoy complex recipes that take hours to prepare, but nothing beats a quick and simple chicken preparation on a busy day.  The mustard flavor was great yet not overwhelming.  Delicious.
