Servings: 8 people
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- Kosher salt
- Ground black pepper
- 1 large yellow onion, roughly chopped
- Fresh parsley, chopped
For Garlic Dijon Sauce
- 3 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 6 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 3/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
- pinch salt
Instructions
- Get ready. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Season the chicken. Take chicken out of the fridge. Pat dry and season on both sides with salt and pepper. Set aside for a few minutes while you make the sauce.
- Make the Garlic Dijon sauce. In a large bowl, combine the Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, garlic, spices, and salt. Mix.
- Coat chicken in the sauce. Add a few pieces of chicken at a time to the bowl with the sauce and use tongs to coat each one in the sauce mixture. Once coated, transfer the chicken to a large lightly-oiled cast iron skillet (or baking sheet). Scrape any remaining Dijon sauce left in the bowl on top. Add the onions.
- Bake the chicken. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until chicken thighs are fully cooked through (internal temperature should register 165°F), about 25 to 30 minutes.
- Serve. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley.
