Photo: Maple-Mustard Chicken Thighs Recipe
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.

This is really easy, and this is really good as far as flavor is concerned, but I like a good sear on my chicken, so I do that quickly before adding the sauce and just finish it off in the oven.

I was looking for something different to make with chicken. WOW!! Perfect recipe. So few ingredients, and it couldnt be easier. Most importantly is that the flavor is outstanding. One note, I dont see how this recipe would work without a grain type mustard, so dont substitute. I did use grain dijon and the texture makes the dish. I did forget the garlic, and it was still 5star.

I couldn't wait to try this recipe as my best friend raved about it! It is wonderfully quick, but fell short on flavor for my tastes. I will try it again, and I will probably look through the 90 reviews for some tips to increase the flavor profile. It is a healthy way to cook chicken, though.
