Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless chicken thighs
- 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
Here's how to make it:
- Combine the mustard, syrup and rice wine vinegar. (I used pancake syrup instead of maple syrup and lite seasoned rice wine vinegar.)
- Season the thighs with salt and pepper. Put the chicken into a 13x-9-inch baking pan. Pour the mustard mixture over the chicken. Spoon the sauce over so the chicken is completely covered. Sprinkle with rosemary, if using.
- Bake in a preheated 450-degree F oven for about 40 minutes. Garnish with fresh rosemary, if desired.

I know exactly how it tastes. And the word to describe the flavor is "acrid."
That's what happens when you take a high fat content food like chicken thighs and COAT IT IN SUGAR. The thighs naturally want to turn crispy with the skin. But you choke them with a thick coating of sugary gel. And then bake it at a temperature sufficient to burn the sugar.
This recipe screams "I don't know what I'm doing." And the picture you used for the article is 100% certified proof that is true. You have burnt sugar and charred skin, because you f-ed up.
I will eat charred and burnt chicken. It doesn't taste great, but I'll eat it anyway. But I will not eat burnt chicken covered in burnt sugar. That's gross. This entire recipe is disgusting.
