The Story & Tips

Honey Mustard Sheet-Pan Chicken is a four-serving dinner of chicken thighs, broccoli, baby potatoes, Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, salt, and pepper. The chicken, potatoes, and broccoli roast together at 400°F, with the honey-mustard mixture providing the glaze across the tray.

Whisk the mustard, honey, and oil before adding it to the sheet pan ingredients. Cut the potatoes evenly and place their cut sides down, then roast everything until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender. This keeps the preparation and oven work on one pan.

Serve straight from the pan while warm with a simple seasonal side or fresh fruit. Refrigerate leftovers for up to three days, reheating them covered before uncovering to crisp. Brussels sprouts or green beans can replace broccoli, and diced sweet potato or butternut squash can replace the baby potatoes.
