    Cook the chicken pieces, turning occasionally, until browned and 165°F in the center, 7 to 9 minutes.

  3. 03

    Whisk the mustard, honey, turmeric, vinegar, and broth and pour into the skillet.

  4. 04

    Simmer and toss for 2 to 3 minutes, until the sauce is glossy and coats every piece.

Why this is a good weeknight call

It keeps the cleanup to one main pan. The ingredient list stays focused, and the recipe has a clear stopping point instead of extra optional projects.
