Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F with the rack in the middle.
Combine the lemon juice, olive oil, and garlic powder in a mixing bowl and stir to combine.
Add the chicken thighs and coat the chicken in the marinade. Season the thighs with salt and pepper.
Place the chicken thighs skin side down on an
elevated rack
on a rimmed baking sheet.
Roast the chicken in the hot oven for 30 minutes.
While the chicken is cooking, combine the garlic, thyme, mustard, and honey in a small bowl and mix well.
Take the chicken out of the oven and brush the honey mustard on both sides of the chicken.
Flip the chicken skin-side up and return to the oven for 5-10 minutes or until the thighs are cooked through and the skin is nicely browned.
Remove from the oven and brush on extra honey mustard if desired.
