I am *not* a fan of “honey mustard” anything. I think this is because most commercial honey mustard sauces taste more like corn syrup than either honey or mustard. But this dish is the exception. I was looking for something quick and easy and came across this recipe – which doesn’t get much quicker or simpler. But I ended up being blown away by how good a real homemade honey mustard sauce tastes! Even if you think you don’t like honey mustard, this dish will make a believer out of you!
