A quick and fuss-free sheet pan dinner featuring crispy honey mustard glazed chicken thighs roasted alongside caramelized vegetables, perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4–6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 2 pounds / 900 g)
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (preferably extra virgin)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • About 4 cups mixed vegetables (baby potatoes halved, carrots cut into chunks, green beans or broccoli florets)
  • Fresh thyme or rosemary (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until smooth and glossy. Warm honey slightly if thick.
  3. Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
  4. Toss vegetables in a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper, keeping pieces roughly the same size for even roasting.
  5. Arrange chicken thighs skin-side up on a large rimmed sheet pan, spacing them out. Scatter vegetables around the chicken.
  6. Brush the chicken and vegetables generously with the honey mustard glaze.
  7. Roast in the oven for 30-35 minutes, turning the vegetables halfway through. Chicken is done when internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and skin is golden and crisp.
  8. Optional: Broil for 2-3 minutes at the end for extra crispness, watching closely to avoid burning.
  9. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Pat chicken dry for crispy skin. Use bone-in, skin-on thighs for best flavor and moisture. Toss veggies halfway through roasting for even cooking. If glaze burns, reduce oven temperature to 400°F and extend cooking time. Glaze can be prepared up to 3 days ahead and stored in the fridge. For extra crispness, broil briefly at the end but watch carefully.
