Instructions

1. 1Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. 2Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 1–2 minutes until shimmering. Place the chicken thighs skin-side down and cook for 6–8 minutes until the skin is golden brown and crispy, then flip and cook for another 3–4 minutes skin-side up.
3. 3Remove the chicken to a plate. In the same skillet, add the diced onion and cook for 3–4 minutes over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and fragrant. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. 4Return the chicken thighs to the skillet, nestling them among the vegetables. Add the apple slices, drizzle with honey and Dijon mustard, and scatter fresh rosemary sprigs over the chicken. Reduce heat to medium, cover with a lid, and cook for 12–15 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F at the thickest part.
5. 5Remove the lid and continue cooking uncovered for 2–3 minutes over medium-high heat until the skin crisps further and the vegetables caramelize at the edges.
6. 6Remove the rosemary sprigs, taste for seasoning, and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
7. 7Divide the chicken, vegetables, and pan sauce evenly into 4 airtight containers while hot. Allow to cool to room temperature before sealing and refrigerating.
