Ingredients

Units Scale

Chicken:

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken thighs

Maple Mustard Glaze:

  • 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Garnish:

  • Fresh rosemary or parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and lightly grease a small baking dish.
  2. Prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, maple syrup, vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Coat the chicken: Place the chicken thighs in the baking dish in a single layer. Pour the mustard-maple mixture evenly over the chicken, turning to coat well.
  4. Bake: Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbling and slightly caramelized.
  5. Serve: Spoon extra sauce over the chicken before serving and garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

  • This dish pairs well with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
  • You can substitute chicken breasts but reduce the baking time slightly to prevent drying out.
