Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 4 chicken thighs, with bone and skin
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 apples, cored and cut into cubes
  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 2 shallots, peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon honey

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 375 F. Line a baking sheet with a sheet of parchment paper or foil.
  2. Pat the chicken with paper towels to dry and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs to the pan, skin-side down, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until browned. Turn the chicken thighs over and continue to cook for 1 minute longer.
  4. Meanwhile, while the chicken thighs are cooking, prepare the remaining ingredients. Put the cubed apples, trimmed spouts, and shallots in a large bowl. Add 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder and toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
  5. In a small bowl or cup, combine the mustard and honey; mix well.
  6. Transfer the vegetables to the baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the chicken thighs on the baking sheet, skin-side up, and brush lightly with the honey mustard mixture.
  7.  Roast for 25 to 35 minutes, until the chicken thighs reach at least 165 F on an instant-read thermometer.
