Thanks so much for stopping by!
Brenna says
Question- why does the recipe call for boneless, skinless thighs but the video has bone in, skin on? Does that change the cook time?
Becky Hardin says
I’m sorry, that’s an error on my part. The cook time should be correct!
Linda S Dickerson says
This recipe tasted like vinegar. I think the amount of cider vinegar was wY too much! Could hardly eat it.
Becky Hardin says
I’m sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy this recipe, Linda!
Britt says
My husband and baby both did not care for this recipe.
I do not eat meat so I try to find recipes that sound good and fix them for him but he was not satisfied with the flavor profile. I tried one of the broccolis and it tasted weird. The flavor combo of maple syrup, soy sauce and mustard was strange but I thought I would give it a try.

I’m sorry this recipe wasn’t to your tastes, Britt!
