How to make Maple Mustard Chicken and Apples

Start by cutting 1 1/2 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken thighs into bite size pieces.

Chicken breasts work too, I just love the thighs, and they are so budget friendly.

And put them on a lined baking sheet.

Then dice a large Honeycrisp apple and add that to the sheet pan with the chicken.

And season with kosher salt, pepper, crushed red pepper flakes, and a seasoning blend of choice.

I went with Old Bay.

Next add about 3 tablespoons of either Dijon or whole grain mustard.

And the same amount of pure maple syrup.

Mix this together right on the sheet pan, I just used my hands to make it super simple.

And bake in a 400-degree oven for about 25 minutes.
