Ingredients
  

1.5 lbs chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on

1 cup honey

¼ cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

½ teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

1 lb baby potatoes, halved

2 cups broccoli florets

Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Marinate the Chicken: In a large bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, black pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes (if using). Add the chicken thighs and coat them well in the marinade. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight in the refrigerator for more intense flavor).

      Prepare the Vegetables: While the chicken is marinating, prep the vegetables. In a large bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes and broccoli florets with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper until well-coated.

        Arrange on Sheet Pan: On a large sheet pan, arrange the marinated chicken thighs, skin-side up. Space the chicken thighs evenly apart. Scatter the seasoned potatoes and broccoli around the chicken.

          Bake: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is golden, cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F / 74°C), and the veggies are tender. If you would like the chicken skin to be extra crispy, broil on high for an additional 2-3 minutes.

            Serve: Remove from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, and then garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve your Sheet Pan Honey Buff hot, enjoying all the delicious flavors together.
