3/4 tsp dried thyme

In a small bowl, combine mustard, garlic and pepper.
Spread about 1 1/2 Tbsp mustard mixture evenly on top of each chicken thigh.

Dietitian Tip: Whole grains such as oats, wild rice, whole-wheat bread and quinoa provide more fiber, vitamins and minerals than refined grains. Portion control is still important when including these healthier carbohydrates in your meal plan. Broccoli Almondine would be a great side dish with this meal.
MAKE IT GLUTEN-FREE: Verify all ingredients gluten-free and this dish can be made gluten-free.
