Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup maple syrup, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 3 tbsp olive oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper until well combined.
- Step 2: Place 6 bone-in chicken thighs skin side up on a large rimmed baking sheet. Arrange 2 peeled and cubed sweet potatoes (1-inch pieces) and 12 oz halved Brussels sprouts around the chicken. Season the vegetables with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
- Step 3: Brush the maple glaze generously over the chicken thighs and vegetables. Roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the vegetables are tender and caramelized at the edges.
- Step 4: Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving, spooning the pan juices over the chicken and vegetables for added flavor.
