- 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Preheat your oven to 400°F.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, thyme, and paprika until well combined.
- Place the chicken thighs in a large baking dish and pour the maple mustard mixture over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- For a caramelized finish, broil the chicken for 2-3 minutes at the end of cooking, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper to the glaze.
- Serve with roasted vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
