Chicken in Honey Mustard Sauce
- 6 Whole Chicken Legs
- 2 Tablespoons Whole Grain Mustard
- 4 Tablespoons Olive Oil, Divided
- Salt And Pepper
- 5 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard
- 5 Tablespoons Whole Grain Mustard
- 5 Tablespoons Clear Honey
- 5 Tablespoons Chicken Stock
- 4 sprigs Rosemary
- Divide chicken legs at the joint and remove the fat hanging on the inside of the thigh.
- I also remove the upper part of the chicken thigh, the one where the back of the chicken begins.
- I use those parts to cook chicken broth.
- But you can leave that on, if you dont want the extra work or you can use chicken thighs where that part has already been removed.
- Mix the whole grain mustard and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
- Place the chicken in a large shallow dish and rub all over with this mixture.
- Cover with plastic foil and leave to marinate in the fridge for about 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees C (390 degrees F).
- Heat the remaining olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet, large enough to hold all the chicken parts in one layer.
- Place the chicken in the pan, skin-side down and fry on all sides until golden brown.
- This should take about 23 minutes per side.
- In the meantime stir together the Dijon mustard, the whole grain mustard, the honey and the chicken stock.
- Add to the browned chicken, sprinkle everything with the rosemary, place the skillet in the oven and cook for about 25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
- To make sure that the chicken is cooked through pierce the thighs with a toothpick, the juices should run completely clear.
- Serve with baguette and green salad.
