Description

Delicious and easy mustard roasted chicken thighs, marinated in grainy mustard and thyme.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 boneless/skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoons grainy mustard (I use Maille Old Style)
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 dashes Italian seasoning
  • to taste Salt & pepper
  • to taste Fresh thyme

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425F and move the rack to the middle position.
  2. Generously season the chicken with salt and pepper and add it to a large Ziploc bag.
  3. Add the grainy mustard, Dijon mustard, olive oil, and Italian seasoning to the Ziploc. Move it around until it’s evenly coated.
  4. You can choose to marinate it for up to a few hours before cooking (I left mine for 30 mins), or you can put it in the baking dish right away.
  5. Spread the chicken thighs in an even layer in your baking dish.
  6. Sprinkle some fresh thyme over top (remove the leaves from the sprigs) and place a few whole sprigs over top.
  7. Roast the chicken for 20-25 minutes or until it’s cooked through (a thermometer should read 175F).
  8. Let it rest for a few minutes prior to serving.

Notes

  • Marinating the chicken enhances the flavor but is optional.
  • Adjust the seasoning based on your preference.
