Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
- 0.25 cups Maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Whole grain mustard
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary leaves, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, minced garlic, olive oil, and chopped rosemary. Set the glaze aside.
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season both sides generously with salt and ground black pepper.
Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil and sear the chicken thighs, skin side down, for 4-5 minutes until the skin is golden brown and crisp. Flip the thighs and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side.
Turn off the heat and pour the maple mustard glaze evenly over the chicken thighs.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Baste the chicken with the glaze halfway through cooking for extra flavor.
Once cooked, remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes. The glaze will thicken slightly as it cools.
Serve the chicken thighs hot, drizzling any extra glaze from the skillet over the top. Enjoy!
