1 Position a rack in the center.
2 Sprinkle chicken thighs on both sides with salt and lay the pieces skin-side up in a shallow casserole dish.
3 In a medium bowl, whisk together the mustard, honey, and olive oil. Add a pinch of salt and taste. Add more salt and mustard until you get the flavor where you want it.
4 Spoon the honey mustard sauce over the chicken. Place the rosemary sprigs in between the pieces of chicken.
5 Bake for 45 minutes, or until the thighs read 175°F on a meat thermometer. Remove the casserole pan from the oven and use a spoon to spoon off any excess chicken fat that has rendered during the cooking. Serve: Sprinkle some freshly ground black pepper over the chicken before you serve. Did you love this recipe? Let us know with a rating and review!
