Cooking
- Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

- During the last few minutes of cooking, brush the honey mustard sauce onto the chicken, allowing it to caramelize slightly for added flavor.
- While the chicken is finishing up, toast the burger buns in the skillet until they are golden and warm.

Notes
For the best results, using a meat thermometer is advised; chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F. For deeper flavor, marinate chicken in honey mustard sauce for an hour or two before cooking. Serve immediately after assembly to avoid soggy buns.
