Simple Maple Mustard Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Place chicken in a 3-qt. slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the syrup, mustard and tapioca; pour over chicken. Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours or until tender. Serve with rice. Freeze option: Cool chicken in sauce. Freeze in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through slowly in a covered skillet until a thermometer inserted in chicken reads 165°, stirring occasionally; add broth or water if necessary.

Steps:

• Whisk maple syrup, Dijon mustard, and balsamic vinegar together in a bowl. Pour over chicken thighs in a bowl and marinate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a casserole dish with cooking spray.
• Place chicken in the prepared casserole dish and pour remaining marinade on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Flip chicken and continue baking until juices run clear and sauce is thick, about 25 minutes more. Serve with sauce over chicken.

Steps:

• For the maple-mustard dip: Mix the mustard, mayonnaise, maple syrup, paprika and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
• For the popcorn chicken: Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large high-sided skillet or pot until a deep-fry thermometer registers 365 degrees F.
• Add the breadcrumbs to a bowl and set aside. Add the chicken, cornstarch, eggs, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper to a separate bowl and toss to combine and coat the chicken. A couple pieces at a time, toss the coated chicken in the breadcrumbs and coat thoroughly, until all the chicken is coated.
• Fry the chicken in 3 or 4 batches until golden and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Remove and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Serve alongside the maple-mustard dip.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Rinse chicken and pat dry. Combine mustard, garlic, marjoram and maple syrup in a small bowl. Spread about 1 1/2 tablespoons mustard mixture evenly on top of each chicken thigh, being careful to cover as much of the surface as possible to form a "crust." Arrange chicken in a glass baking dish. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until mustard mixture has formed a crust and is slightly hardened, and juices run clear when the chicken is pierced.

Steps:

• Toss chicken with seasonings. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat; saute chicken 10 minutes. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir 5 minutes. Stir in mustard and syrup; cook and stir until sauce is caramelized and chicken is no longer pink, 5-7 minutes.
