Baked chicken leg quarters glazed with mustard, maple syrup, and herbs and then roasted on top of potatoes and carrots for an award-winning dinner. Veggies roasted under chicken will always be #1 in our hearts.

INGREDIENTS

12 oz. baby potatoes, halved

8 oz. small carrots, halved

2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided

Kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

4 lb. whole chicken legs with thighs attached, room temperature

2 tbsp. Dijon mustard

2 tbsp. whole-grain mustard

1 tbsp. maple syrup 

1 tsp. fresh thyme leaves

Pinch crushed red pepper flakes

Freshly chopped parsley, for garnish

DIRECTIONS

  • Preheat oven to 450°. Toss potatoes and carrots in bottom of large baking dish with 1 tablespoon oil. Season with salt and pepper. 
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels, drizzle with remaining tablespoon oil, and season with salt and pepper. Arrange, skin-side up, on top of vegetables in baking dish.
  • In a small bowl, stir together mustards, maple syrup, thyme, and red pepper flakes. Brush on top of chicken and drizzle any extra over vegetables. Roast chicken until golden and a thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 160°, about 30 minutes. 
  • Let cool slightly, sprinkle with parsley.
