This is one of those go-to recipes when I am short on time but still want to put together something that feels like a "real" meal. The original recipe called for melted butter, too, but I quit using it and don't miss it at all. The pineapple helps tenderize the chicken and keeps it nice and juicy!
This feeds my family of two plus a toddler for one meal - increase the amount of chicken as needed (and you can add a second can of pineapple if you're cooking for a crowd and need to stretch the sauce)
1 8-ounce can crushed pineapple, with juice
1/4 c. spicy brown mustard
1/4 c. chicken broth or white wine (I always use rice cooking wine, just because I always have a bottle open in my fridge)
1/4 c. honey
6 chicken tenderloins
Mix the first four ingredients in a small bowl. Lay chicken in a 8x8x2 baking dish, and pour sauce over the top.
Bake at 375 for 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
