Ingredients
8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
¼ cup honey
¼ cup Dijon mustard
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp olive oil
1½ tsp dried oregano
1½ tsp dried thyme
½ tsp paprika
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish or line with foil.
In a small bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, garlic, olive oil, oregano, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Place chicken thighs in the baking dish and spoon sauce over each piece, coating well.
Bake for 35–40 minutes or until chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) and the skin is golden and caramelized.
Optional: Broil for 2–3 minutes at the end for extra crispy skin.
Let rest for 5 minutes before serving with pan juices drizzled on top.
