Ingredients
Scale
- 1/3 cup liquid honey
- 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
- 3 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 8 bone in, skinless chicken thighs
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 lb baby potatoes
- 1 1/2 cups fresh green beans, halved
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 teaspoon corn starch
Instructions
- Mix honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and apple cider vinegar to create a honey garlic sauce.
- Put half the sauce into a large freezer bag with chicken thighs and marinate for 30-60 minutes, or overnight. Reserve the rest of the sauce in the fridge.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F and prepare a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Arrange the marinated chicken thighs on one side of the baking sheet.
- Combine salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, then season the chicken with this mixture, saving some for the veggies.
- In a medium bowl, toss the baby potatoes and green beans with oil and the remaining salt mixture until coated. Place these vegetables on the other side of the baking sheet.
- Bake everything in the oven for 30 minutes at 375°F.
- While the chicken and veggies bake, transfer the reserved sauce to a small saucepan, add corn starch, and whisk together. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until thickened.
- Once baked, take the sheet pan out of the oven and brush the chicken with the thickened sauce. Return to the oven for 5 more minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the veggies are tender.
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the chicken overnight.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken reaches 165°F for safe consumption.
Feel free to substitute or add other vegetables such as carrots or bell peppers.
