Ingredients

4 boneless chicken thighs
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
0.5 cup orange marmalade
0.25 cup bourbon
0.25 cup yellow mustard
0.25 cup onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for baking.
Season the chicken thighs generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, then brown the chicken on each side for about 2 minutes. Transfer the browned chicken thighs to an 8-inch square baking dish.
In a small bowl, combine orange marmalade, bourbon, mustard, onion, and garlic. Pour this mixture into the skillet and cook, whisking constantly over medium heat for about 2 minutes to cook off the bourbon. Pour the sauce evenly over the chicken thighs in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven, uncovered, for approximately 25 minutes, or until the chicken thighs are no longer pink and the juices run clear. Use an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a thigh to ensure it reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
