Ingredients

  • 6 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs, trimmed of excess fat
  • 1/4 cup of good honey
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp curry powder
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper

Instructions

  • All ingredients ready? Let's begin!
  • Remove the chicken from the refrigerator about 20 minutes before baking so it can come to room temperature. Pat dry and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Place the chicken, skin side facing up, in a rectangular baking dish or a large cast-iron skillet. The thighs can touch one another.
  • In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the honey, mustard, olive oil, curry powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Pour the sauce evenly over the chicken thighs.
  • Place the baking dish or skillet on the center rack of the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Baste the thighs generously with the pan sauce and return the dish to the oven. Continue to bake until the skin is crisp and the meat reaches 165°F when checked with a digital meat thermometer.
  • Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon some of the sauce over it. Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  • Using tongs, remove the thighs from the dish and place them on a serving platter.
  • Discard the remaining sauce or strain it to remove excess fat. Serve the warm glazed chicken with your favorite side dishes.
