Ingredients
– 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
– 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
– 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
1-Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (177°C) and preparing your ingredients for a smooth process.
2-First, 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.
3-In a small bowl, mix together the 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 to form the glaze.
4-Brush this mixture generously over the chicken thighs to coat them evenly.
5-Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 175°F (80°C), then broil on the top rack for 2 to 3 minutes to crisp the skin while watching closely to avoid burning.
