Rosemary and Honey Mustard Chicken Thighs
This chicken dish is sweet, tangy, and has a roundness from mustard flavor and light herbal lift from rosemary. I like to serve it with roasted broccoli or a side salad. You can marinate this days ahead (or freeze marinated chicken) and then grill, bake, or pan-fry, as desired.
Servings: 3
Calories: 287kcal
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds chicken thighs boneless and skinless
- 1/4 cup keto honey or allulose plus 1/4 teaspoon honey flavor
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 1 sprig rosemary fresh, tender leaves removed and chopped, or 1/2 tablespoon Italian seasoning blend
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper fresh ground, optional
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne optional, omit for nightshade-free
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients and toss to coat the chicken evenly. Let stand for 30 minutes at room temperature or marinate up to 2 days ahead of time.
- After the chicken has marinated, heat a large nonstick pan over medium high heat. When hot, add the chicken and cook on medium-high heat until little to no liquid remains, about 15 minutes total, flipping half way through. Cook without stirring for the last few minutes to get a slight char on the pieces once the liquid is evaporated.
Notes
You can also bake these in a preheated 350ĀŗF oven for about 40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 175ĀŗF. If baking, be sure to lightly oil the baking dish to prevent sticking. A quick broil at the end will brown the tops nicely.
