Maple Dijon chicken step by step

1. Mix equal parts maple syrup and Dijon mustard, then add just enough vinegar to loosen the sauce and to get enough tang to your liking. Add in 2-3 minced garlic cloves.
2. Season the chicken thighs and place on a large jelly roll pan on a parchment sheet or foil and crumple up the edges around so the juices won't run into the asparagus. Pour over the sauce and place fresh rosemary over the top. Drizzle the other side with olive oil, add your asparagus, and roll around to coat. Season with good salt and freshly cracked pepper. Roast in a hot oven 400 or so until done...20 minutes worked for me....
