One Pan Maple Mustard Chicken and Potatoes – Easy and absolutely amazing one pan dinner with chicken thighs and potatoes cooked in a delicious maple syrup and mustard dressing.
Hey, you guys!! How’s it going? I hope 2017’s first week is treating you very well! I bet this Maple Mustard Chicken and Potatoes will make things EVEN better.
Clearly, my obsession with ONE pan/pot dinners continues, as does my love for mustard-on-all-the-things.
Recently, I posted my recipe for One Pot Chicken and Orzo on Diethood’s Facebook Page and a reader decided to comment about hating one-pot meals (whaaat?!?), and how disgusting it was to put all raw food in one pan. Really?!? Anyone else feel that way? I mean, gosh, that’s like crushing all my cooking dreams! Besides, I DO brown the meat AND remove it from the pan so to cook the rest of the food. That counts for something, right?!
Fortunately, some of my awesome fans came running to my defense and she quickly backed off.
P.S. She used some ugly words toward me and that is why others jumped in.
One Pan Maple Mustard Chicken and Potatoes
SO, to prove my point – one pan dinners are da best thing since the invention of microwave dinners – I made yet another delicious recipe that puts everything in one pan, and allows dinner to make it to the table in under 1 hour. Less cleanup and more time to enjoy to yourself. Or more time to fold laundry… wash dishes, help with homework, run on the treadmill, etc…
THIS is what 5 INGREDIENTS in ONE PAN looks like. Any questions?!
Howeverrrr… this one DOES include all raw food in one pan… *shrug* OH, let’s just live a little!
Also, it’s going to get so, so, soooo much better once you brush that maple-mustard sauce over the chicken and the potatoes.
HOW TO MAKE MAPLE MUSTARD CHICKEN:
clean up those pretty little potatoes, cut them in half, season, and transfer to a large oven-safe skillet. Next, you are going to find some skinless chicken thighs, season those, and arrange them right around those potatoes.
To make the sauce, please use your favorite brown mustard and maple syrup. Once you combine those two, please pour that amazingness over the chicken and potatoes, toss around to coat, and roast for about 40-ish minutes in the oven.
In the meantime, make a salad, watch some trash reality TV, and relax.

ENJOY!

Don’t let anyone tell you that one pan meals are wrong. They have been around since the beginning of time and civilization still manages to keep going. I don’t make them often but I love them when I do. I am an 80 year old window who lives alone. I am also a very small woman with a small appetite. I do have a quarter size sheet pan. That is what I use when I do make sheet pan meals. This one sounds particularly good. I can use one thigh and my assortment of veggies. I will be making it for myself this winter. Thank you so much. It is people like you that keep people like me healthy.
That’s wonderful to hear! I’m very happy you loved it! Thank YOU! 🙂
I think this is a recipe that is for folks who like a sweeter chicken sauce. The family didn’t love this.
The thigh came out rather bland (but moist) and potatoes that were over 1.5” in diameter were undercooked.
