Mantelikana
recipe

A delicious and crispy weeknight dinner featuring the flavors of almond, honey, and mustard. Perfect for a weekend dinner.
Preparation Time: 1.5 hours
Serving Size: 4
Ingredients:
- 1 kg chicken thighs
- Salt (approx. 1 tbsp)
- 1 dl water
- Topping:
- 50 g almond flakes
- 1 tbsp liquid honey
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 dl heavy cream
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 garlic cloves
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of black pepper
Instructions:
1. Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves. Measure the topping ingredients into a bowl or jug, add the garlic, and blend with an immersion blender until you achieve a coarse paste that resembles a loose porridge.
2. Bring the chicken thighs to room temperature and rub salt under the skin. Spread the topping mixture over the surface and place the chicken in an ovenproof dish. Spoon any leftover topping over the chicken and sprinkle almond flakes on top if desired.
3. Bake in a preheated oven at 175°C (350°F) for just over an hour, until the juices run clear. If necessary, add about 1 dl of water to the bottom of the dish if it looks like the topping is sticking. Cooking time may vary depending on the size of the thighs, so monitor the cooking process.
