Come on. Let’s see what the chicken’s like. Oh, the chicken is so moist. Look, look, look, look at that. Oh, yeah. Hi everyone. Welcome to Backyard Chef. I’m Rick. Today, a simple cook. I mean, when I say simple, the hardest thing is making the sauce. And the sauce is only a pan sauce. It’s easy. It’s tasty. It’s absolutely delicious. I’ve got a couple of chicken breasts. Now, you can use up to four chicken breasts with this recipe. Not a problem. It’s easy to come together. I’ve got some fantastic asparagass. That looks super. And we’ll just give that a trimming. I got some garlic. I’ve got dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, a bit of thyme, salt, and pepper. So, you know, up to you how much garlic, how you mince it. We’re going to split this. Actually, I want a little bit for the sauce, and I want a little bit for the marinade. So, just mince up your garlic any which way you normally do with a mincer or a knife. Small as big as you like. And don’t forget, you can always squash it with your knife. And you get that lovely minced garlic. Right, we want a little bit in one and we want about 2/3 in the other cuz 2/3 is going to go for the marinade and one is going to go for the sauce. Round about that. Grab your asparagus. Go for the woody end. Now, what they say is you’ll just feel it like that and where it can split like there, that’s the woody end you don’t want. Okay. So, working on that theory, we’re going to cut everything to about that size. So, nothing hard about this one. We need to clear away the asparagrass. So, what we’ll do, we’ll dress it up now and it’s ready to go. So, we got some asparagus in that tub there. Look, got a little bit of olive oil, a tiny bit of salt, little bit of black pepper, and a little one of those. Now, we could put it all in in this tub, actually, but I was going to put it on a tray. I’ll make my mind up in a minute. Okay, one side. Okay, we got a bowl. And what we’re going to do is knock up a little bit of a marinade. Actually, want a little bit of marinade to go over our chicken. But what we’ll do, we’ll keep a little bit back and marinade the chicken. Keep a little bit back. Then we roast it. We base some on. So, we might as well go in there with our garlic. Want about four tablespoons of honey. So that’s about one, two, three, four, somewhere around about there. Oh, about three tablespoons of Dijon mustard. One, two, three. A little bit of salt, little bit of pepper, little bit of olive oil. Well, a little bit of time. And we want to give that a mix up. Now, that is going to be our marinade. Okay. We want to reserve a couple of tablespoons in there. That’s going to be our glaze over the top of the chicken. The rest wants to go on our chicken. So, take your chicken in a bag. In a bag’s easier. And we’re just going to put our marinade in there. So, zip up your ziplo and rub your chicken round with all that marinade. That’s it. That stays marinading up to 4 hours. If you want to do it overnight, that’s brilliant. There you go. Okay, that’s been sat there a good 4 hours. Want to take a tray with some parchment paper. Now, you don’t have to do it this way, but what I’m going to do is set the chicken off and put all the asparagus on the same tray. So, like I say, nothing’s hard about this whatsoever. So, either get some tongs or get your hand in chicken on there. Beautiful. Okay, there’s our chicken breast. Make sure your oven’s on 200 uh C 400F. Whack that in the oven. That’s going in for about 10 minutes. 10 to 15 minutes tops. No more. We’re going to put the asparagus around here and carry on. Okay, when you’ve had your time, let’s have that out of there. So, it’s a straightforward one on there with your asparagass. Now, try and get it out a little bit so it’s not all piled up. And what we’re going to do is bunch it up afterwards. We’ll bunch it up afterwards cuz we’re going to put some parmesan on. So, back in. Come on. So, that’s going to give us time to knock up a quick quick sauce. So, as per usual with my sauces in there, a little bit of butter. want a little flame on. We don’t have to go two crackers with this. In there, our garlic straight on top of that butter. Now, it’s not much of a cook on this. We’re just taking out the rawness of the garlic. Little stir around. Bit of Dijon mustard. What about a tablespoon? Just bring that in. [Applause] Little bit of honey. About a tablespoon. Little bit of pepper. Not bothered about salt. Salt’s in the dijon. So, we get that in there. Want to go in there with some chicken stock. Turn it down. And in with some cream. Nice and steady. Just bring that back up to temperature. Nice little warming through. Now you give it a taste test if you so wish and season to how you want. I’ve gone in with a little bit of pepper. Look, it’s a nice little bring it up to temperature and then that’ll be our sauce done. We’ll probably squeeze in a little bit of lemon actually. So you can cook and thicken as much as you like. We’re going to just squeeze a little bit of lemon in there for brightness. So give it a quick taste test. Oh, beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. So just thicken it to how you want. And then we just need to take care of our chicken and our asparagrass. The chicken’s looking absolutely fabulous in there. But, you know, we kept a little bit of sauce marinade. Let’s have that out of there. So, it’s nice and straightforward. Our chicken’s doing very nicely there. Look. And we can just glaze over the top with some of that marinade that we reserved. So, we get that back in the oven for about 3 minutes, three or four minutes, and then we bring it out and bunch up the asparagrass. Okay. And it’s back out again. So, all we’re doing now is bringing the asparagus together. Just bring it together in a nice little clump. Parmesan on there. We’re going to melt that on the top of that asparagrass. And that’s going to give us a super duper flavor. Back in the oven. A couple of minutes. And we serve up. Come on. On there. Some of our sauce. Bit of mash on there. Give it a little squidge down on there. Half on the mash, half in the sauce. And take our asparagus on there. Little bit of our sauce. Little bit of green stuff on there. A little bit of parsley for me. A little bit of black pepper. So there you are. That’s our honey mustard chicken roasted asparagus with parmesan. And we’ve got a honey mustard cream sauce served on mashed potato. Look at that. Come on. Come on. We are in. Look at that glaze on there. Sticky honey glaze. Come on. Let’s see what the chicken’s like. Oh, the chicken is so moist. Look. Look, look, look at that. Oh, yeah. Oh, that is that is delicious. Oh, wow. Oh, I love that. That glaze has finished it off. That glaze has topped it. It’s got that honey sweetness. Oh, look at the chicken. Look at that chicken. That is absolutely gorgeous. Oh man, what a fabulous dinner. Our mustard sauce is delicious as well. M. And I suppose we got to try the asparagus. A bit of veggie with the parmesan. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. You know, parmesan, the saltiness of the parmesan goes really well with those paragraphs. So there you go. That’s a fantastic meal. you know, so full of flavor. That’s our honey mustard roasted chicken parmesan asparagus. We got a nice creamy mustard sauce. It’s off the charts. It’s delicious. If you like what we’re doing, big thumbs up, subscribe to the channel, ring that bell. We’ll catch you in the next video. That chicken is perfect.

  1. How you think of different things to make every bloomin`Β΄ day, is amazing. Many cooks on here,itΒ΄s once or twice a week. You try to please all of your viewers, wherever they are in the world you have recipes to please. Many of us are passionate cooks,many have yet to learn. You are a great teacher Rik and such a hard worker. Your reipes are always great on the plate ! You must also know that you are much loved, lad…… Come on people.LetΒ΄s get him to 300K. ….I vill only say say ziss vonce .. πŸ˜‰

  2. I've always hated cooking, but I've been so enchanted with your simple but flavorful meals that I'm actually excited to try them. My husband has absolutely loved it all and is so glad I found youπŸ˜‚
    Thank you for all your hard work, sir! You are VERY appreciated here in a small coastal Maine USA home❀

  3. Aspragras!
    Waiter: Can I help you Sir?
    Customer: I'll have a steak and kidley pie please.
    Waiter: Steak and kidley?
    Customer: That's what I said diddle I.

  4. I can get free sparragrass from mid April until the end of June. Mostly the 'wonky' stuff the pickers have simply thrown on the floor. But my sauce would include Dijon mustard, parmesan and creamed horseradish. I still have a few kilos in the freezer, but it's only really good for soups. I will return to this video next Spring.

  5. Excellent as ever. I have looked for a fried kidney recipe, mum used to make in the 70s. Every clip on YouTube seems to have several extra ingredients compared to mum's flour coated fried kidneys. Do you think i am misremembering the ingredients, also i don't have any idea about what kidneys she used (pig,lamb,chicken etc). Any suggestions πŸ€” 😊

  6. I realize that I'm not required to like EVERYthing you do on here, but dang it – I DO! πŸ™‚This one looks amazing! I have it queued up right after that amazing Bucatini with Tuna you did a few days ago! I just have to pick up a couple of lemons and a jar of capers.(gonna add the capers to the bucatini dish)

  7. Brilliant Rik looks absolutely delish.
    On a side note can you make us a key lime pie.
    Not really keen on these recipes on offer..
    Many thanks.
    I'll do this recipe later on in the week.. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§

  8. πŸ‘πŸ‘You never cease to amaze me with all these gorgeous dishes you present to us. πŸ‘πŸ‘

  9. Well, I can't wait for asparagus to come into season in Australia so will have to use another green veg πŸ˜‹πŸ˜‹

  10. Mustard and chicken are a match made in heaven. But honey? Absolutely not. I don’t even like honey on carrots, let alone honey with chicken. I go for sweet for my sweets (pudding, dessert) Honey should be reserved for crumpets or toast, not in a main meal.

  11. Another amazing chicken recipe Rik. Love everything in this one. Given it a go for sure. Thanks for sharing.

  12. My favorite vegetable β€” spinach β€” prepared exactly to my liking! A perfect meal! Thanks, Rik.

  13. Hi Rick, this looks absolutely delicious and I am going to make this tomorrow for sure! I love your recipes! I live in Penang Malaysia and I have followed your YouTube and attempt your recipes it’s always a success. My favourite thing to make regularly is cottage cheese!
    Today I keep smiling as you keep saying asparagrass lol! I keep waiting for you to say it πŸ€­πŸ˜‚
    Keep on sharing!
    Hugs Lynda in Penang Malaysia

  14. Lovely dinner Rik,I was surprised to see people saying you can’t buy chicken breasts in the UK with skin on,admittedly here if the skin is on,so is the rib cage,and they are quite a bit cheaper than boneless,and skinless. I always buy the ones with the ribcage,as then I can freeze the bones for stock,and who doesn’t like crisped up skin,and deboning is easy. That looked like really good quality asparagus.😊

  15. It sounds so delicious that I am going to defrost my container of chicken thighs & make this sauce up as I do have some Dijon left as well as some honey that needs to be eaten. I love honey mustard chicken but the seasoning you buy to make this up has additives & is never as nice as one would like. So if this works, then I will be making it regularly in the winter months which is now as I am from the Land down under, or Australia to the rest of you.

  16. I'd eat that up. If I did it, I'd go garlic butter and pepper, maybe some chopped chilli, thyme. – Not complaining. Thanks Mate! πŸ–πŸ–πŸ–

  17. Great recipe Rik, what are the amounts for the sauce. I caught some of the totals of amounts but how much chicken stock and how much cream, single or double cream. Thanks Rik😊

  18. Oh that looks amazing Rik Thankyou. I will have to adapt it but I will and hopefully still amazing. Love those flavours. β€πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί

  19. This looks absolutely delish, loved your mushroom and spinach lasagna so super excited to give this one a go! For the sauce, was it 1 cup broth 1 cup heavy cream? The 'more' section in the video bio only contains the recipe for the chicken marinade and the asparagus, the sauce recipe is missing😒
