Ingredients
– 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
– 1/4 cup honey
– 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
– 2 garlic cloves, minced
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
– 1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
1-Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Place the 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs in a 9×13-inch baking dish and pat them dry with paper towels for crispier skin.
2-In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup honey, 1/4 cup Dijon mustard, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary, 1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.
3-Generously brush or spoon the honey mustard mixture over the chicken thighs, making sure to coat them evenly.
4-Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 175°F (80°C).
5-For extra crispy skin, broil the chicken on the top oven setting for 2 to 3 minutes, keeping a close eye to avoid burning.

🌿 If fresh herbs are unavailable, substitute with 1 teaspoon dried herbs or Italian herb blend.
🍗 Bone-in, skin-on thighs provide superior flavor and moisture; boneless or skinless cook faster but can be less juicy.
⏰ Marinate chicken in sauce for a couple of hours before baking to deepen flavors.
