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
- Combine honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and vinegar to create the honey garlic sauce. Pour half into a large freezer bag with the chicken thighs and marinate for 30-60 minutes, or overnight in the refrigerator. Reserve the remaining sauce.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Arrange chicken thighs on one side of the baking sheet.
- Mix salt, pepper, and garlic powder; season chicken thighs with this mixture, saving some for the vegetables.
- In a medium bowl, toss baby potatoes and green beans with oil and the leftover salt mixture until well coated. Place them on the other side of the baking sheet.
- Bake for 30 minutes at 375°F (190°C).
- While baking, heat the remaining sauce in a small saucepan, whisk in corn starch, and simmer over medium heat until thickened.
- Take the sheet pan out of the oven and brush the chicken with the thickened sauce. Bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the vegetables are tender.
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the chicken thighs overnight.
Feel free to substitute any seasonal vegetables you have on hand.
Make sure to check the internal temperature of the chicken to ensure it’s fully cooked.
