Super easy to make for a weeknight. The chicken came out super moist with a nice balance of flavor and hubs was a happy man. I did add some garlic and onion powder and a little extra Dijon to the sauce, but then realized I couldn’t taste a thing due to being sick which is reason I kept on adding, but rating it on what my family told me and they were all satisfied. Thank you, Lazyme, for sharing. Made it for Best of 2022 tag game per WAIGEN’s recommendation.

I thought this was awesome! Five stars from me. My husband wined about it. But I give the review. I'll make it again. P.S. All I could get was boneless, skinless, so I didn't broil them.

Great chicken! I used bone-in, skin-on thighs. The topping is so tasty, though I think I'll use a little more horseradish the next time (we love it!). The package had three large thighs and I had about half the sauce left over, so will cut down to a half recipe for the next go-round. Thanks for sharing!

What a delightful surprise! I had always considered horseradish as an accompaniment for beef dishes, but it paired quite nicely with the baked chicken breasts. The dijon/horseradish sauce is really quite tasty and makes this quite a special dish (especially considering the ultra-simple and quick preparation). It very easily goes into my "wow" file. Yum. Thanks, lazyme.

What an easy recipe to make with lots of flavor. The only change I made was to reduce the amount of prepared horseradish to 2 tbsp. vs. 3. Served with a rice side dish and salad.

This was terrific! I had a tube of German Sharp Horseradish which I think is more intense than prepared horseradish, so I only used 1 TB and upped the Dijon to 1 TB. I added some sautéed mushrooms to the remaining sauce and served with green beans. DH loved it and so did I. Made for one of your football wins!
