Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 bone-in chicken thighs
  • ¼ cup honey
  • ¼ cup Dijon mustard
  • 2 garlic gloves minced
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 ½ teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 ½ teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Place the chicken in a baking dish and pat dry with a paper towel.
  2. In a small bowl, stir together the honey, mustard, garlic, oil, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper.
  3. Brush or spoon the honey mustard mixture liberally on top of the chicken.
  4. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and registers 175°F (80°C). Turn on the top oven broiler in the last 2 to 3 minutes to crisp up the skin.

Notes

  • If you don't have fresh herbs you can use 1 teaspoon total of dried herbs. An Italian herb blend works great as well!
