4 broiler-fryer chicken breast halves, skinned
1 teaspoon paprika
8 thin slices lemon
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup spicy brown mustard
1 teaspoon dried onion
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

In small microwave bowl, mix together honey, mustard, onion, lemon juice and curry powder.

When chicken is done, remove to microwave-safe serving dish (transfer only chicken, not liquid) and let sit while sauce is cooking.

Microwave honey-mustard sauce on HIGH for about 2 minutes.

Spoon sauce over chicken and return to microwave; cook on MEDIUM about 2 minutes or until glaze is hot and fork can be inserted in chicken with ease. Serve with yellow rice.
