Maple Thyme Baked Chicken

Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200 ºC). Remove skin from the chicken. Rub salt and pepper all over the chicken and set it in a baking dish.

In a small bowl, whisk the maple syrup with the vinegar, thyme and cayenne. Pour the mixture evenly over the chicken.

Roast the chicken for 50-60 minutes or until brown and internal temperature reads 180°F (82°C). Baste the chicken 3-4 times with pan juices during cooking to glaze pieces. If the pan juices start to burn, add a little more water.

Reserve the pan juices to serve on the chicken.
