Maple-Glazed Baked Chicken Thighs
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, or more to taste
  • 8 chicken thighs
  • cooking spray (such as Pam®)
Instructions
1
Combine the sweet, sticky maple syrup with the tangy Dijon mustard and rich balsamic vinegar in a bowl, whisking them together until smooth.
2
Place the chicken thighs in a separate container and pour the syrup-mustard-vinegar mixture over them, allowing them to soak for 30 minutes.
3
Next, preheat your oven to a high temperature of 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
4
Spray a casserole dish with cooking spray to prevent the chicken from sticking.
5
Place the marinated chicken thighs in the prepared casserole dish, making sure they're evenly spaced.
6
Pour any remaining marinade over the top of the chicken thighs, ensuring they're fully coated.
7
Now, put the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes.
8
Flip the chicken over halfway through the cooking time, continuing to bake until the juices run clear and the sauce has thickened, approximately 25 minutes more.
9
Finally, serve the chicken hot, spooning the rich sauce over the top of each piece.
