Why You’ll Love This Sheet Pan Honey Dijon Chicken with Veggies

This dish is the ultimate answer to “what’s for dinner?” It takes minimal prep, uses pantry staples, and cleans up in a breeze. The flavorful glaze brings the chicken to life while the high-heat roast caramelizes the edges of the veggies for a restaurant-style finish right from your oven.

It’s also super versatile. Swap in whatever veggies you have on hand or even use chicken breasts if that’s what you prefer. Once you try this, you’ll be hooked on the flavor and simplicity.

Can I Use Chicken Breasts Instead of Thighs?

Absolutely. Chicken thighs bring extra juiciness and flavor, but if you prefer white meat, go ahead and use boneless, skinless chicken breasts. Just be mindful of cooking time—you may need to reduce it slightly to avoid drying them out. And no matter the cut, that honey Dijon glaze makes everything taste incredible.

Ingredients for the Sheet Pan Honey Dijon Chicken with Veggies

This recipe relies on everyday ingredients that work together beautifully to build flavor and color. Here’s what you’ll need to pull it all together:

Chicken thighs bring rich flavor and stay juicy during high-heat roasting.

Honey adds natural sweetness that balances the mustard and creates that sticky glaze.

Dijon mustard brings a punch of tang and depth to the marinade.

Garlic enhances the glaze with its bold aroma and taste.

Olive oil helps coat the chicken and vegetables so they roast rather than steam.

Carrots offer natural sweetness and roast up with lovely browned edges.

Red potatoes provide hearty texture and soak up the flavorful glaze.

Broccoli adds vibrant color and cooks quickly while maintaining a slight crunch.

Salt and pepper are essential for seasoning and bringing out every ingredient’s natural flavors.

How To Make the Sheet Pan Honey Dijon Chicken with Veggies

Step 1: Whisk the Glaze

In a small bowl, combine honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth. This will act as both your marinade and basting glaze.

Step 2: Prep the Chicken

Place the chicken thighs in a large zip-top bag or bowl. Pour half of the glaze over the chicken and marinate while you prep the vegetables (about 15 minutes or up to 2 hours in the fridge).

Step 3: Prepare the Veggies

Chop the carrots into sticks, the red potatoes into quarters, and cut the broccoli into bite-size florets. Toss them all on a parchment-lined sheet pan with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.

Step 4: Roast Everything

Nestle the marinated chicken thighs among the veggies on the sheet pan. Brush with a bit more of the reserved glaze. Roast in a preheated 425°F oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping the veggies halfway through.

Step 5: Broil for Finish

For golden, crispy edges, turn on the broiler for the last 2-3 minutes. Watch closely so nothing burns.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy

Drizzle with the remaining glaze just before serving and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
