Delicious Maple-Mustard Glazed Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 4 pieces chicken breasts (boneless and skinless)
  • 1 cup maple syrup (pure maple syrup for best flavor)
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (for an extra tang)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and thyme.

    Adjust the seasoning to your taste.
  2. Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.

    The longer you marinate, the more flavor the chicken will absorb.
  3. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Ensure the oven is fully heated before baking.
  4. Bake the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on a baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

    Baste the chicken with the marinade halfway through cooking for extra flavor.
  5. Serve

    Once cooked, let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with your favorite sides.

    Pair with roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
