Rantings of an Amateur Chef

As I’ve mentioned on the blog before, I am a big fan of chicken thighs. I think they are the most flavorful piece of the bird and find myself subbing them into many recipes that call for mixed pieces or even breasts. I cannot wait to try this recipe out. Here’s Maggie with Maple Dijon Chicken Thighs….

A friend of mine (and fellow amateur cook) found this recipe on Pinterest. He loved it so I decided to try it. (Thanks, Jack!) I read some reviews of it, and tweaked it a bit taking those into account.

This is baked at a high temp- 450, so it gets a lovely crispy finish that is almost as good as the bbq grill. I chose to use bone-in and skin on thighs as that is what I had on hand. In fact, I had all these ingredients on hand, which is always a bonus.
