Holy Yum Chicken Recipe
There are no words to describe the deliciousness of this Holy Yum Chicken. Very delicious such a favorite in this house and so easy to make. So moist and yummy!! Really good and tasty!!
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 - 2 pounds boneless skinless, chicken thighs (most of the fat cut and discarded)
- 1/2 cup Dijon mustard (must be Dijon mustard, no substitutes)
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup (again, no substitutes. No fake Aunt Jemima stuff)
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar, seasoned or unseasoned
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 teaspoon fresh rosemary for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 8x8" oven-proof pan with 2 layers of tin foil.
- In small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, maple syrup, rice wine vinegar, salt and pepper.
- Place the chicken thighs in the foil layered pan then pour the mixture on top of it. Turn the chicken around in the sauce to make sure it gets all coated.
- Bake, uncovered, for 40 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let chicken sit for 5 minutes then transfer to a plate. Do NOT discard the liquid.
- Immediately after plating chicken, whisk in the 1 tbsp. of cornstarch into the liquid in the pan. You'll create a nice, thick sauce to drizzle over your chicken. You need to do cornstarch mixing immediately because the liquid needs to be hot in order for it to thicken properly. If it's still not thickening after 1 tbsp., you can add a little more.
- Sprinkle rosemary on top before serving.
