Braised Maple Dijon Chicken Thighs

Easy and very flavourful

INGREDIENTS

  • 1.1 kg deboned chicken thighs, clean off extra skin
  • 1 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon mirin
  • 4 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
  • 1 sprig rosemary chopped

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 450F
  2. Combine all sauce ingredients together & mix until smooth
  3. Layer chicken thighs, salting tops, into casserole dish – I used 12×8 inch stoneware pan
  4. Bake in middle of oven for 30 minutes
  5. Turn on broiler – leave in middle of oven, broil for 5-10 minutes or so until tops slightly browned.
  6. Turn over all the top chicken pieces, broil another 5-10 minutes.  The broiling process also helps evaporate some of the vinegar liquid.

Serve with mashed sweet potatoes and broccoli. Add sauce on top.
