Mustard Maple Marinated Chicken Thighs

An easy marinade that doubles as the dipping sauce.  The hubby had it with baked beans.

For the marinade:
1/2c spicy brown mustard
1/4c sugar free maple syrup
2 Tbsp yellow mustard
2 Tbsp brown sugar or Splenda
2 minced garlic cloves
1 tsp onion powder
1 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1/2 tsp black pepper
8-10 skinless, boneless chicken thighs

Mix all the marinade ingredients in a large bowl.  For each person you have eating, put 2 tablespoons marinade in a ramekin or little dish.  Add the chicken to the big bowl and stir to coat the chicken on all sides.  Let sit for 1 hour.

Line 2 cookie sheets with foil and spray with Pam.  Spread thighs out on sheets, scraping off excess marinade.  Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes, or until thighs are cooked through.  Serve with the reserved sauce.  I also put out blue cheese dressing to dip in - what a great combo!
