Ingredients

  • 4 large bone-in chicken thighs, skins removed (about 1 1/2 pounds)
  • 2 tablespoons grainy French mustard
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 clove minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Rinse chicken and pat dry. Combine mustard, garlic, marjoram and maple syrup in a small bowl. Spread about 1 1/2 tablespoons mustard mixture evenly on top of each chicken thigh, being careful to cover as much of the surface as possible to form a "crust." Arrange chicken in a glass baking dish. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until mustard mixture has formed a crust and is slightly hardened, and juices run clear when the chicken is pierced.

    Not "Diet" At All

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    Everyone loved it! Even the men who don't watch their figures....you cannot tell that it's a healthy version of chicken. ... Very moist, and you don't miss the skin because the coating becomes the skin. Read more

    Sweet yet tangy

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I was very surprised with this recipe, I was expecting to be disappointed but instead I really enjoyed this chicken. I never... would have thought that combining Dijon mustard with maple syrup would taste SO good! I will definitely be making this recipe more often than expected!Read more

    Very adaptable recipe

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I tried this recipe with chicken breasts and it came out great. Then I adapted it to use with salmon fillets and it is... fabulous. I don't always have maple syrup around, so I substitute honey. I use a combo of honey dijon mustard and spicy brown mustard and it tastes great.Read more

    Made a few changes but overall GREAT!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I used just one mustard which would be the regular French's mustard, parsley instead of marjoram(didn't have any) and I used... a marinade I've been wanting to try which was a peppercorn garlic marinade. I also seasoned my chicken with seasoned salt first and added a little butter to my mixture. It turned out WONDERFUL! I'm sure if I didn't use my peppercorn garlic marinade this still would hav turned out just as well and tasty! I covered my chicken with foil for 30 min and the last 15 uncovered for a great crust! Great recipe!Read more

    I hate to say it but I'm not a fan of this one

    Rated: 2 stars out of 5
    I am a firm believer in Ellie's recipes. This one however, just didn't work for me. I felt the marinade was too... over-powering. With a five star review, I'm obviously not jiving with the majority of opinions on this recipe so I may decide to give it one more try at some point; but from my experience, I'd recommend diluting the marinade with some chicken stock.
