Tips:
- Use a good quality maple syrup for the glaze. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the chicken.
- If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can substitute yellow mustard. However, Dijon mustard has a more complex flavor that will complement the maple syrup better.
- You can use any type of chicken for this recipe, but bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts or thighs will give you the best flavor.
- To ensure that the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Maple Dijon glazed chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet maple syrup and tangy Dijon mustard creates a flavorful glaze that is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve this chicken with roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
