• In a medium bowl, whisk maple syrup and Dijon mustard.
• Dip each chicken thigh on both sides into maple-dijon mixture and place on a prepared baking sheet, skin side up, leaving space between all chicken thighs.
• Add cubed butternut squash into the same bowl with the remaining maple-dijon mixture, mix to coat, and add butternut squash on the baking sheet around the chicken, in one layer. If you run out of maple-Dijon mixture, whisk a little bit more.
• In a separate, medium bowl, combine Brussels sprouts, olive oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt, mix to combine. Then add Brussels sprouts on the baking sheet around the chicken, in one layer.
• Roast for 30 or 40 minutes at 425 F, uncovered, until the chicken is cooked through.

PAN ROASTED MAPLE DIJON CHICKEN WITH BUTTERNUT SQUASH & BRUSSELS SPROUTS RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• In a sauté pan large enough to hold the chicken in a single layer, heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Add chicken to pan, skin side down and sauté for about 5 minutes per side or until chicken is browned. Remove chicken from pan and reserve. Pour drippings off. In same pan, add butter. Allow the butter to melt over medium heat. Add squash and sprouts to pan and sauté, tossing occasionally, until the outsides are golden brown, about 4 minutes. Remove from pan and hold separately from chicken. Turn heat to high and add stock, syrup and mustard. Stir and bring to a boil, stirring to scrape up the brown bits on the bottom of the pan. Add chicken back to the pan, cover, and reduce heat to medium low. Cook for 25 minutes or until chicken registers 190°F with an instant read thermometer. Add vegetables back to pan, cover again, and cook for another 8 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Remove chicken and vegetables to a serving platter, placing vegetables around chicken. Turn heat to high and boil sauce until it is reduced and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Spoon sauce over chicken and serve.
