Maple Mustard Chicken and Potatoes is an easy and amazing one-pan dinner featuring chicken thighs and potatoes cooked in delicious maple syrup and mustard dressing. This dish is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a fancy meal!
The combination of chicken with potatoes is a classic that never gets old, and the addition of maple syrup and mustard elevates the flavors to the next level. This recipe puts everything in one pan and allows dinner to make it to the table in under 1 hour.
How To Make Chicken and Potatoes
Feel free to experiment with other seasonings and herbs to make this dish your own. You can also add other vegetables like carrots or bell peppers to the potatoes for more variety.
- Start cleaning up those little potatoes, cut them in half, season them, and transfer them to a large oven-safe skillet.
- Next, you will find some skinless bone-in chicken thighs; season those and arrange them right around the potatoes.
- To make the sauce, use your favorite brown mustard and maple syrup. Once you combine those two, pour that amazingness over the chicken and potatoes, toss around to coat, and roast for about 40-ish minutes in the oven.
This recipe is a great way to create a flavorful and satisfying meal with minimal effort. The chicken thighs are juicy and delicious, while the potatoes become crispy and tender. This is a great meal to prepare when you want something that doesn’t take hours but still has plenty of flavor. Add this Avocado Lime Ranch Dressing Salad and White Wine Sangria to round out the meal.

Notes
- Chicken Thighs: For this recipe, we are using bone-in chicken thighs. Boneless chicken thighs will not work because the potatoes need to cook much longer than the thighs.
- Potatoes: Use small potatoes, about 1.5 inches in diameter. If you use anything bigger, they will need to cook longer and will dry up the chicken. If you do have to use bigger potatoes, cut them into about 3/4-inch pieces.
- Mustard: I like to use a combination of brown and yellow mustard, but feel free to use your favorite mustards or whatever you have on hand.

This maple mustard chicken was so delicious! And so easy! I used spicy brown mustard since that is what I had on hand. Thank you for your recipes.
Katerina,
I cannot believe someone “fussed” at you for posting one pan meals. I love them and am always
looking for recipes. Because my husband and I are retired, these are very handy for 2 people.
Please keep experimenting and posting those one pan wonders.
Shame on that person for using a poor choice of words. Everything is raw when you start…I
apologize, I am laughing here, and trying to figure out her ahhh point….
I can’t wait to try this….and I saw where you told one reader you could substitute honey, so I
will try both ways….
Thanks again and keep up the good work.
I have wholegrain mustard and djion mustard at home. Can I make it with these 2 mustard. Will it be ok. Please let me know. Thanks
Could your substitute honey for the maple syrup?
Hi! Yes, absolutely.
Can you kindly tell me what yellow and brown mustard is? In South Africa we have English mustard which is yellow, Dijon mustard, wholegrain mustard, French and German mustards so I’m not sure what Brown and yellow mustard is. Please advise as I would love to make this. Thanks,
Hi!! So brown mustard is made of brown mustard seeds and has a bit of heat and spice. It’s similar to dijon, but grainy, like whole grain mustard. I think whole grain and brown *might* be one and the same.
Thanks for the reply regarding the mustard.
Looks delicious! Gotta make this recipe.
Just made it and ate it. Delicious! Easy. Going into rotation. I have never been a thigh person but these were so tender and juicy, this recipe converted me. Think I’d prefer sweet potatoes rather than white next time. Personal preference. I added baby carrots this time. Home sounds good too.
SO yummy! LOVE the maple mustard combo ๐
Looks wonderfully flavorful!
Im sorry the other reader was mean, but if she uses a crock pot you are putting all the raw food together in the crock pot. I love tbe recipe being diabetic it works great for me..Thank you
