Ingredients
- 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce (gluten-free if needed)
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups mixed vegetables (like bell peppers, zucchini, and carrots)
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme or rosemary
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken thighs in a baking dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well-coated. Allow to marinate for at least 15 minutes (or longer if you have time).
- Prepare the Vegetables: In a separate bowl, toss the mixed vegetables with olive oil, thyme, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Combine and Roast: Arrange the marinated chicken thighs on a baking sheet. Scatter the seasoned vegetables around them. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is crispy.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm alongside the roasted vegetables.
