My Sheet-Pan Honey Mustard Chicken & Veggies dinner

Dinner recipes like my Sheet-Pan Honey Mustard Chicken & Veggies, are popular for a reason. What is the dreaded part of most people’s dinner routine? The cleanup. This recipe gets baked all on the same sheet, so you won’t have a bunch of different pots and pans to wash when you’re done making it. It does require a bowl to toss everything in before you bake it, but if you’re like me, the dishes you really dread washing are the ones that have food BAKED on them. So a mixing bowl and some measuring cups/spoons aren’t too bad.

How it’s done…

The chicken and potatoes get tossed in a sweet and savory honey mustard glaze. It might feel like not enough glaze to you, but it will be. Just toss it and coat it as evenly as possible. Once it bakes and juices start coming out of the chicken, everything thins down and creates a lot more liquid. It is plenty of glaze, but if you feel like it’s shy, I understand. I just want you to know that it is enough, so don’t stress about it.

Then everything gets baked on the same pan until the chicken is cooked through and everything is nice and golden. The broccoli gets added toward the end since it needs a much shorter cooking time. No one wants to eat broccoli that has cooked so long that it turns to the texture of applesauce. No thank you. So add those babies at the very end. I’ll remind you in the recipe instructions, so no worries.

The roasted flavor of the chicken and potatoes really comes through, and the honey mustard glaze is pretty subtle. It’s just perfect.

Don’t fear the butter…

I also should add – please don’t be afraid of the butter. I know it’s a LOT, but it really makes it SO GOOD. I’m not proclaiming this recipe to be low-cal, low-fat, or anything of that nature. It is what it is. I happen to really love butter, so if you’re opposed to it that’s okay – I’ll still be your friend.

I love that simple things can be so good – dinners like this are a good reminder for me that life doesn’t have to be filled with glamorous moments, thrilling times, or fancy things ALL of the time, to be wonderful. Some of the most wonderful memories and moments we remember are probably the most simple things. Cheers to easy dinner recipes and making the most of simple things!

Ingredients

6 chicken drumsticks bone-in thighs could also be used
3 medium-large potatoes I use yukon gold
1/2 head broccoli, cut into florets
7 1/2 tbsp butter, melted
2 tsp minced onion
1 1/2 tbsp honey
1 1/2 tbsp yellow mustard prepared
3 tsp. brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp. salt
pepper
dried parsley

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Wash potatoes and cut into 2-inch chunks. Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel.
In a large bowl, mix together: butter, onion, honey, mustard, brown sugar, and salt. Stir till the sauce is smooth and the butter is completed mixed in.
Add the potatoes and chicken into the bowl with the honey mustard glaze. Toss until everything is well coated in the glaze.
Dump everything onto a greased baking sheet, and spread it out so that it will cook evenly. Sprinkle with pepper and dried parsley as desired.
Bake for 30 minutes, then flip the potatoes as needed, and turn the oven up to 400 degrees. At this point, spoon some of the glaze that collected in the bottom of the pan, over the potatoes and chicken.
Return to the oven for 15 minutes, then add the broccoli (toss it with the potatoes so that some of the glaze covers it too) and bake for 15 minutes more. Chicken should be cooked through and the potatoes fork tender at this point.
