Description

A simple recipe for flavorful baked chicken thighs with a sweet and tangy honey mustard glaze.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, black pepper, and salt.
  4. Place the chicken thighs in a baking dish.
  5. Pour the honey mustard mixture over the chicken thighs, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is golden brown and crispy.
  7. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For crispier skin, you can broil the chicken for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  • Serve with your favorite side dishes like roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
