- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Cooking Tips:
- For best results, marinate the chicken thighs in the honey mustard mixture for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- To get crispy skin, start by cooking the chicken skin-side down in a hot skillet for a few minutes before transferring to the oven.
- If you don't have apple cider vinegar, you can substitute with white wine vinegar or lemon juice.
Cooking Process:
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Place the chicken thighs in a large bowl and pour the honey mustard mixture over them. Toss to coat evenly.
4. Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs, skin-side down, and cook for 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
5. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
6. Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
