Ingredients

Scale

Proteins

  • 4 boneless, skin-on chicken thighs or breasts

Vegetables

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

Honey Dijon Glaze

  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (plus extra for tossing veggies)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Honey Dijon Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
  2. Prep the Vegetables: Peel and cube the sweet potatoes into bite-sized pieces, and trim and halve the Brussels sprouts. Toss them lightly in a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper to coat evenly.
  3. Arrange on the Sheet Pan: Spread the sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts across a large baking sheet in a single layer. Nestle the chicken pieces among the veggies, then brush each piece generously with the honey Dijon glaze.
  4. Roast to Perfection: Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and vegetables are tender and caramelized.
  5. Broil for Crispiness (Optional): If you want that extra crispy finish, broil for 2-3 minutes at the end, watching carefully to avoid burning.

Notes

  • Use chicken thighs for juicier and more flavorful results under high heat.
  • Cut vegetables evenly to ensure everything cooks uniformly without some pieces becoming mushy.
  • Pat chicken dry before glazing to help the glaze stick better and improve browning.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan to allow proper roasting and to develop crisp edges.
  • Check internal temperature of the chicken with a meat thermometer to avoid overcooking.
