Equipment

  • Large sheet pan or baking tray
  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk or spoon
  • Knife
  • Cutting board
  • Measuring spoons
  • Aluminum foil or parchment paper (optional, for easy cleanup)

Ingredients
  

For the Chicken

  • 4 chicken thighs bone-in, skin-on or 2 large chicken breasts
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

For Honey Mustard Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard optional but recommended
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Vegetables

  • 2 cups baby potatoes halved
  • 1 cup carrots sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 red onion cut into wedges
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Step 1: Preheat the oven

  • Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step 2: Prepare the honey mustard sauce

  • In a bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice until smooth and glossy.

Step 3: Season the chicken

  • Pat chicken dry and season with salt, pepper, and paprika. This helps the skin crisp up beautifully during roasting.

Step 4: Coat the chicken

  • Brush or coat the chicken generously with half of the honey mustard sauce. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes if you have time.

Step 5: Prepare vegetables

  • Toss potatoes, carrots, broccoli, and onions with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them evenly on the sheet pan.

Step 6: Arrange everything

  • Place chicken pieces on top of or between the vegetables. This allows juices and sauce to flavor everything while baking.

Step 7: Roast

  • Bake for 35–40 minutes, flipping vegetables halfway through. Brush remaining honey mustard sauce over chicken during the last 10 minutes for a glossy finish.

Step 8: Rest and serve

  • Once cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This keeps the chicken juicy and flavorful.

Notes

  • Use chicken thighs for juicier results
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan or vegetables will steam instead of roast
  • Add sauce in layers for deeper flavor
  • Broil for 2–3 minutes at the end for crispy skin
  • Cut vegetables evenly for uniform cooking
