The dressing is made from three of my favorite ingredients – maple syrup, Dijon mustard and crushed red pepper flakes. It’s a little tangy, a little sweet and has a pop of heat. We recommend trying this marinade with other meat dishes as well (it makes for a great salmon dish, trust us on this one).
While the chicken and Brussels sprouts bake together, the juices from the chicken drizzle into the Brussels sprouts – caramelizing the edges.
Tip: To make this dinner even easier, toss the ingredients for the marinade together the night before with the chicken and refrigerate overnight to let the flavors soak into the meat. The next day, all you do is toss everything on the pan with your chopped Brussels sprouts and bake.
