Ingredients

• Chicken thighs - 300 grams
• Yellow mustard - 4 tablespoons
• Apple cider vinegar - 2 tablespoons
• Honey - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Onion powder - 1 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Fresh parsley - for garnish

Steps

1. In a medium bowl, combine yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, honey, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.
2. Place the chicken thighs in a zip-top bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they're well-coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
3. Preheat a grill or a grill pan over medium heat and add the olive oil to prevent sticking.
4. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F) and the chicken is golden brown.
5. Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
6. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with your choice of healthy sides.
