Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 6)
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp whole grain mustard
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). In a bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, olive oil, garlic, 1/2 tsp salt, and pepper.
  2. Pat the chicken dry, season lightly with salt, and coat all over with the sauce in a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  3. Bake for 35 minutes, basting with pan juices after about 15 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  4. Switch the oven to broil on HIGH. Broil the chicken 2 to 3 minutes, until the glaze bubbles and turns deep amber. Serve immediately with pan juices spooned over.

Notes

Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving so the juices settle and the glaze sets up just a little more.
