Today’s post is sponsored by Maille. Opinions are my own and I appreciate your support of the brands and companies that support What Should I Make For…

Chicken thighs were a staple in my house growing up and they are today’s inspiration for mustard glazed sheet pan chicken. Chicken thighs are affordable, accessible, and most importantly, FLAVORFUL.

Baked chicken thighs were frequently in the rotation when I was a kid, but our preparation of them wasn’t always the most inspired (sorry mom). We would toss in some potatoes, some dried herbs, a glug of wine or even a can of soup.

The big draw was that they were an affordable meal for a family and an easy weeknight dish to prepare for two working parents. This dish is an homage to an old family favorite, with a fresh spin, and amped up flavor.

It’s all about that mustard glaze!

First of all, adding flavor doesn’t mean necessarily mean adding prep time. A simple glaze of Maille Rich Country Mustard mixed with honey and brown sugar is sweet and tangy and beyond delicious.

I’ve long been a fan of all Maille mustards, but the combination of the creamy, spicy mustard flecked with seeds and the sweetness of honey and brown sugar is spot on for these chicken thighs.

The glaze is liberally brushed over the skin and the end result is golden brown, crackly-skinned goodness.

Save a little mustard glaze…

…for those veggies! Not too much, but a little reserved glaze drizzled over the fresh spring veggies helps them shine.

I love the fresh, young carrots, whole scallions, new potatoes, and asparagus stalks in this recipe not only for their appearance, but for their fresh flavor and easy roasting. The veggies, like the chicken skin, get golden brown and caramelized and they’re cooking time is evenly matched to the chicken thighs.

And don’t forget that fresh thyme! No need to pull if off the stem, just simply scatter the sprigs over the sheet tray for a pop of woodsy, lemony flavor.

Tips for success

  • Line that sheet pan! Parchment paper or nonstick foil are ideal to prevent sticking and easier clean-up.
  • I recommend skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs for optimal flavor. Skinless or boneless can be substituted if you prefer.
  • I love the look of whole carrots, scallions and asparagus, but they can be chopped into 1-2 inch pieces if you prefer.
  • Be sure to drizzle a little glaze over the vegetables for added flavor.
  • If you’re not sure when the chicken is cooked through, use an instant read thermometer to check for doneness.
