For the Chicken
- 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme or rosemary
For the Vegetables
- 1 pint baby potatoes, halved if large
- 3 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
- 1 cup green beans, trimmed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Prepare the Honey Mustard Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and dried herbs until smooth. This sticky sauce will coat both the chicken and vegetables with amazing flavor.
- Season the Chicken: Pat chicken thighs dry with a paper towel to ensure crispiness, then brush or toss them generously with the honey mustard sauce, making sure each piece is well coated for a beautiful glaze while roasting.
- Arrange Vegetables on the Pan: On a large sheet pan, spread baby potatoes, chopped carrots, and trimmed green beans in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper, then toss to evenly coat.
- Add Chicken to the Pan: Place the seasoned chicken thighs skin side up directly on top of or alongside the vegetables. Reserve a little sauce in the bowl to drizzle over at the end if desired.
- Roast Until Golden: Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the vegetables are tender and caramelized. For extra crispiness, broil for the last 3-5 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning.
- Serve and Enjoy: Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes. Drizzle with any leftover sauce before serving hot for a simple yet impressive meal.
