Scallions??? If you can't find them at the market you CAN substitute them for onions. They're smaller and more pungent and taste great but not always easy to find in the bigger supermarkets.

Made the "honey mustard chicken" tonight... kind of. I thought I bought dijon mustard.. turns out I bought honey lol. And I HAD shallots.. got them for another dish not too long ago, but apparently they weren't still good so I ended up using about 1/3 of an onion that I had leftover in the fridge. ANYWAY that said it was pretty good.. not something I have to have again real soon, but tasty enough. The potatoes were really good.
