Sesame Honey Mustard Chicken


While at the Outer Banks I found a kitchen store at an outlet mall with the BEST Sesame Honey Mustard pretzel dip I've ever had by a company called Roberts Rothschild Farm. It can also me used other ways, one of which is a glaze for chicken on the grill. MMMM We tried this Sunday night after we got back from our trip. Just take 3 or 4 chicken breast and liberally glaze them and grill away...mmmm
