mustard-glazed chicken thighs

1/4 cup melted unsalted butter or coconut oil
2 tablespoons gluten-free mustard*
1/2 teaspoon dried sage
1/2 teaspoon sea salt black pepper to taste
12 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs

Preheat the oven to 425°F. In a small mixing bowl, combine the melted butter or coconut oil, mustard, sage, salt, and pepper. Place the chicken thighs on a rimmed baking sheet or in a large baking dish, and brush the mustard glaze evenly over each one.

Bake for 45 minutes or until a thermometer reads 165°F when inserted into the center of one of the chicken thighs.

PREP TIME 25 MINS • COOK TIME 45 MINS • SERVINGS 6-8

Use bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts if you don’t have chicken thighs. Serve with Creamy Herb Mashed Cauliflower and a green salad. These are fantastic reheated in the oven or toaster oven, and they make a delicious breakfast as well.
