Stay Off the Internet {Recipe: Zesty Mustard Baked Chicken Thighs} (2024)

That chicken looks AMAZING! definitely adding it to my menu! I hope your surgery helps-feel better soon! And eat lots of veggies and drink smoothies from a stripey straw!

Yum, these look amazing! Hoping you’re feeling much better very soon. Oh, and the word veggies doesn’t incense me a bit… Really, people?

I absolutely love love LOVE your post!!! If you don’t like veggies don’t say it!!! Eat them instead 🙂 and I love this recipe!!! Looks like a perfect last minutes dinner to throw together!!! So glad I stopped by 🙂 you feel better 🙂

I have made the mistake of going online while pain meds were doing their job or even after a few glasses of wine (right now) but ….we love chicken thighs! I have made something similar to this but I cant wait to give your version a try. Feel better soon!

That doesn’t sound very pleasant. I hope you feel better soon!

OMG, Kristen! About a month or so ago, I mentioned “veggies” in a Facebook status and I was bombarded with rude and hateful comments – did you know there’s actually a Facebook fan page devoted to harassing people who use that term instead of vegetables? It’s crazy! And the stripey straw…nice! Rachel will love that. Feel better, friend <3

If I ever get upset about someone using the word veggie please punch me in the face. PS I like you on pain meds.

Seriously, people are up in arms over the word veggies? I am so out of the loop!!! Rest up and hope you get well soon.

Love this perfect weeknight dinner, and your post totally made me smile 🙂

First, I have had friends who have had lots of success with ablations-I hope you feel better! People love to criticize don’t they? Nothing wrong with “veggies” or “chickies” for that matter!

Right on, sister! I like you on pain meds. 😉 I hope you’re feeling much better today and I’ve been thinking about you nonstop. Better than ever in no time. And thanks for a meat dish idea for my house full of peeps next weekend. These look incredible! Xo

Love this post! The chicken looks delicious. Hope you’re recovering well!

I’m harboring similar feelings about the articles floating around these days telling people what not to do. In fact, I might mention something about those feelings in my next blog post because I need to get them off my chest, too! 😉

This chicken sounds simply amazing! I hope you’re better than ever in no time 🙂

Get well soon, Kristen! Also, WTF to “veggies.” Really, people. Let’s focus on more important things in life. Let getting these chicken thighs into our bellies as quickly as possible. 🙂

I always say my family isn’t picky…but the one thing I cannot get past them is mustard!! This looks fabulous. I bet the leftovers would make a good chicken salad 😉
Oh golly your post made me laugh. I hope you feel better soon. I had an ablation about 5 years ago. I hope you didn’t have the pain I did….oh golly that was ouchy. Take care xox Sheila

Oooh I love mustard baked chicken, I tend to roll it in crushed (gluten free) cereal, it is surprisingly delicious–cold or hot! Yum.

Go girl! I think I need some pain meds so I can get a few things off of my chest. Haha! 😉

This chicken looks absolutely delicious and I love how easy it is!

I think more people need to work on getting over themselves. I happen to like striped straws and twine. I also use the word veggies like it’s going out of style. Love these thighs. Feel better soon! Pinned.

Hope you’re feeling better and finally able to get some rest! I call my vegetables veggies all the time- I had no idea it was a no-no! This chicken looks so delicious- I’m picturing it with a bowl of rice and side of roasted broccoli for dinner this week! Big hugs and get well soon! xo

Love this chicken recipe. I hope you’re feeling better.

I love that your nurse advised this lol 🙂 Hoping for the best recovery for you. I know it was slow going but really I hope and pray the best for you my friend!

Wishing you a speedy recovery! This chicken thigh recipe sound amazing! Perfect for a weeknight meal.

I hope you feel better soon!! And, um, if I got rid of all my stripy straws (1) my prop cabinet would collapse and (2) I’d have nothing in my photos, lol. 🙂 This chicken is making me hungry.

Hope you feel better. I have been through D&Cs and an ablation and it was the best thing I ever did!! I think you will feel so much better!
This recipe looks awesome. I am going to try it tonight.

I am swooning over this chicken!! It looks and sounds so delicious 🙂 I can’t wait to make it

Thank you for this recipe, which I tried tonight and will use again. Usually when a recipe lists the hands-on time it takes me much longer and I wonder if I am especially slow in the kitchen. But this recipe was accurate – it was truly quick and easy to prep. And tasty! As a minor tweak, I might decrease the syrup next time for a touch less sweetness. As for Deborah Madison, it’s her right to hate the word “veggies” but her argument is flawed. I think we use the word because it’s faster and easier to say (i.e., one fewer syllable) and write (i.e., three fewer letters). That’s efficiency not disrespect. As she points out, we don’t add “ies” to the words meat, wheat, eggs, birds – but I would argue that’s because it actually makes those words longer.

Has anyone tried this with pork chops?
