    Baked Honey Mustard Chicken Thighs

    It doesn't get much simpler (or more delicious) than this Baked Honey Mustard Chicken Thighs recipe. Juicy chicken thighs are smothered in an amazing honey mustard sauce, and then baked until crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.
    Prep Time: 10 minutes
    Cook Time: 45 minutes
    Total Time: 55 minutes
    Servings: 8 chicken thighs

    Ingredients

    • 8 bone in, skin on chicken thighs
    • 1/4 cup honey
    • 1/4 cup dijon mustard
    • 1 teaspoon onion powder
    • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
    • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a 9 x 13 pan with cooking spray. In a medium bowl combine honey, dijon mustard, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper.
    • Add the chicken thighs to the prepared pan. Brush the honey mustard sauce on the chicken.
    • Bake until the chicken reaches 175 degrees, 30-40 minutes.
    • Turn the broiler on high and cook until the skin gets browned and crispy, 2-3 minutes. Serve immediately and enjoy!

    Notes

    Use bone-in and skin-on thighs. These are best for making baked chicken that is moist and juicy on the inside, with irresistibly crispy skin.
    If using boneless chicken thighs: Check for doneness after about 15 minutes.
