Description
Sweet, savory, and herb-kissed, these baked honey mustard chicken thighs are the perfect way to bring bold flavor to your table with minimal effort. Juicy on the inside and beautifully caramelized on top, they’re a weeknight dinner win that feels anything but ordinary.
Ingredients
8 bone-in chicken thighs
¼ cup honey
¼ cup Dijon mustard
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1½ tsp finely chopped fresh rosemary
1½ tsp finely chopped fresh thyme
½ tsp kosher salt
¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish or line with parchment.
In a bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon, garlic, olive oil, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Pat chicken dry and place in the dish. Pour honey mustard mixture over the thighs, turning to coat thoroughly.
Bake uncovered for 35–40 minutes, basting once or twice, until chicken is golden and cooked through (165°F internal temp).
Let rest 5 minutes before serving. Spoon sauce over top if desired.
