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
- Mix honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and apple cider vinegar to create the honey garlic sauce.
- Pour half of the honey garlic sauce into a large freezer bag, add chicken thighs, and marinate for 30-60 minutes in the refrigerator. Store remaining sauce.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the marinated chicken thighs on one side of the baking sheet.
- Combine salt, black pepper, and garlic powder; season the chicken thighs and set aside some for veggies.
- In a medium bowl, combine baby potatoes and green beans with oil and season with the remaining salt mixture. Spread veggies on the other side of the baking sheet.
- Bake everything for 30 minutes.
- While baking, heat the remaining sauce in a saucepan, whisk in corn starch, and let it simmer until thickened.
- After 30 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and brush the chicken with the thickened sauce. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes until the chicken reaches 165°F.
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the chicken overnight.
Feel free to substitute with other vegetables such as carrots or bell peppers.
Make sure chicken thighs are not overcrowded on the baking sheet for even cooking.
