Description
This Honey Mustard Chicken & Vegetables recipe is a quick, one-pan dinner bursting with sweet and tangy flavors. Perfect for busy weeknights or cozy weekends, it combines tender chicken, caramelized veggies, and a luscious honey mustard sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (or boneless thighs or chicken breasts)
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
- 2 large carrots, sliced
- 1 cup green beans, trimmed
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a sheet pan with parchment paper, if desired.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust as needed.
- Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.
- In a separate bowl, toss baby potatoes and carrots with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Place the chicken thighs skin-side up on the sheet pan. Scatter the potatoes and carrots around them. Brush half of the honey mustard sauce over the chicken and drizzle a little over the veggies.
- Bake for 25 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, add the green beans, and brush the chicken with the remaining sauce. Return to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- If desired, broil the pan for 2-3 minutes for a golden, crispy finish. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
For extra sauce, double the honey mustard mixture and serve it on the side. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked to 165°F (74°C). Adjust vegetable sizes for even cooking.
