Time 1h55m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
½ teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon salt
ground black pepper to taste
4 chicken thighs

Steps:

  • Whisk honey, olive oil, Dijon mustard, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.
  • Place chicken thighs into a plastic zip-top bag; pour marinade over. Seal the bag and massage marinade into thighs until completely covered. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Pour the chicken thighs and excess marinade into a baking dish and cover with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, uncover, and flip chicken thighs.
  • Return to the oven and continue to bake until thighs are no longer pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer inserted near the bones reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 20 minutes more. Remove from the oven.
  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Broil thighs in the preheated oven until crispy and golden, 2 to 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve.
