Ingredients
Scale
Protein:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Vegetables:
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 2 medium potatoes, chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 red onion, chunked
Seasonings and Glaze:
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary or thyme
- Chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Crank your oven to 375°F and grab a large baking sheet for the entire meal preparation.
- Whisk ¼ cup honey, ¼ cup Dijon mustard, 1 tbsp olive oil, ½ tsp paprika, ½ tsp salt, and ½ tsp black pepper into a smooth, glossy glaze.
- Coat your 4 chicken breasts with half the glaze, letting them marinate while you chop vegetables.
- Slice 2 carrots, 2 potatoes, 1 red bell pepper, and 1 red onion into similar-sized chunks.
- Drizzle remaining 1 tbsp olive oil over chopped vegetables, sprinkling 1 tbsp fresh rosemary and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Spread vegetables across the baking sheet, nestling marinated chicken breasts directly on top.
- Slide the sheet into the 375°F oven, roasting for 25-30 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F internal temperature.
- During the final 5 minutes, brush remaining glaze over chicken for a golden, caramelized exterior.
- Remove from oven and shower with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
- Choose bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts for extra moisture and flavor that keeps the meat juicy during roasting.
- Cut vegetables into similar-sized pieces to ensure even cooking and prevent some from burning while others remain undercooked.
- For a lower-carb version, swap potatoes with cauliflower or zucchini and use a sugar-free honey alternative to maintain the glaze’s sweetness.
- Prep the marinade ahead of time and let your chicken sit in the glaze for up to 2 hours in the refrigerator to develop deeper flavor complexity.
