The mustard has enough salt to carry it without adding any.... Chriance, Boston, MA	7 weeks 5 days ago
I enjoyed the flavor, but found it it be a tad too salty. My boyfriend complained that it was WAY too salty. I followed the recipe exactly, except I just used a generic brand maple syrup, and I did not have a wire rack to put over a sheet pan, so I just did it in a baking dish. I used chicken leg quarters and I removed the skin. the chicken was VERY juicy!! Oh, and I also did a shake-and-bake sorta thing with the bread crumbs and the left over oil, so the bread crumbs did not stick as well. But again, very good, fairly quick, and oh so easy!! I will definitely make this again, but I will probably cut the salt out entirely. Molly, Johnson CIty, NY	7 weeks 5 days ago
Could I use extra virgin olive oil instead of canola or is the canola used for a reason? Nicole H., Stratford, CT	7 weeks 5 days ago

My entire family loved it and it was easy to make. I used italian seasoned breadcrumbs and worried it wouldn't taste right, but it was delicious. Audrey, St. Charles, MO	7 weeks 5 days ago
I used the Dijon mustard with seeds, and I liked it better than the smooth Dijon. My husband likes to make it, too. Tasty & easy. J. Piltz, Kamuela, HI	7 weeks 5 days ago
My husband and I loved this recipe. I used a homemade oatmeal-wheat bread for making my breadcrumbs. Excellent. This has become my new favorite. Jonica, Somerville, ME	7 weeks 5 days ago
