Caramelized Chicken with Honey and Mustard: An Explosion of Flavors

Preparation of the Chicken: Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper.

Brown the Chicken: In a large ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side, until nicely browned. Remove the chicken and set aside.

Prepare the Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the chopped garlic, cooking until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in the honey, Dijon mustard, cider vinegar, rosemary and chicken broth. Stir to combine and simmer gently so the sauce thickens slightly.

Bake: Return the chicken to the pan, coating it well with the sauce. Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is completely cooked and the sauce is lightly caramelized.

Serve: Serve the chicken hot, drizzled with extra sauce from the pan. Serve with your favorite topping, like rice, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.
