1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Rinse the chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
2. Combine the mustard, garlic, maple syrup, and oregano in a small bowl.
3. Spread the mustard mixture evenly on top of each chicken thigh or drumstick, being careful to cover as much of the surface as possible to form a crust.
4. Arrange the chicken in a single layer in a large baking dish. Bake until mustard mixture has formed a crust and is slightly hardened, and the juices run clear when the chicken is pierced in the center, about 45 to 50 minutes.
