Mustard Chicken
This is a great weeknight meal that comes together in a few minutes. As a sheet pan dinner, there’s barely anything to clean up.
Ingredients:
6-8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or legs
Kosher salt
2-3 tbs Dijon mustard
2 tbs honey
1/3 cup olive oil or avocado oil
2 toes garlic, grated or minced
fresh thyme or rosemary
fresh cracked pepper
fresh salad greens and lemon for serving
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment or foil for easy clean- up.
Sprinkle kosher salt all over chicken pieces.
In a bowl, whisk dijon, honey, olive oil, and garlic. Add chicken and let it marinate while the oven comes up to temperature.
Arrange chicken pieces, skin side up, on sheet pan so nothing is touching. Add several grinds of pepper and a sprig of fresh thyme or rosemary to each piece.
Roast 35-40 minutes. Allow to cool at least 5 minutes.
Serve over a bed of greens with a squeeze of lemon and drizzle of olive oil.
