Sweet Hot Mustard Chicken Thighs

What You’ll Need

Gather up these ingredients to get started on this scrumptious meal!

  • 4 chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on for that extra flavor)
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

How to Prepare

Now, let’s get into how to whip this all together!

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Get that kitchen warmed up!
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the Dijon mustard, honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Whisk it all together until it’s smooth and well blended.
  3. Take those chicken thighs and place them in a baking dish. Pour the sauce over them, ensuring each piece is nicely coated.
  4. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and pop it in the oven for about 25 minutes. This helps to lock in that moisture.
  5. After 25 minutes, remove the foil and let the chicken bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). You’ll want that skin crispy!
  6. Once done, take out the baking dish, let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes, and then serve it up with your favorite sides. This chicken pairs wonderfully with rice, veggies, or even some crispy potatoes.

And there you go! A simple yet flavorful dish that will have everyone asking for seconds. Enjoy the sweet heat, and don’t forget to share the love with your family and friends!
