It’s one of the best sauces I’ve ever tasted (well, but I’m suspicious ahahaha). So I truly hope you like it!

Step 2 – Combine Ingredients
In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, soy sauce, and lemon juice until well combined and smooth.
Step 3 – Cook the Sauce
Transfer the mixture to a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce starts to bubble and thicken slightly, about 3-5 minutes.
Step 4 – Adjust and Serve
Taste the sauce and adjust the sweetness or tanginess by adding more honey or lemon juice if desired. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Finally, pour the sauce over cooked chicken, or use it as a dipping sauce or marinade!
