- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, minced garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
- Place the chicken breasts in a resealable bag or shallow dish, and pour the marinade over them, ensuring the chicken is evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.

- Once grilled, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Before serving, garnish the grilled honey mustard chicken with chopped fresh parsley.
