Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, combine the honey, mustard, ginger, salt and pepper. Mix well and transfer to a large zip-top plastic bag. Add the chicken and shake to coat evenly with honey mustard sauce. Marinate for at least 2 hours, chilled.
Step 2
Preheat the grill to medium heat. Lightly coat a grill rack with nonstick cooking spray. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken for about 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and cooked through.
Step 3
Let the chicken rest on a serving platter for 10 minutes before serving.
