Ingredients
For the Chicken & Marinade:
-
1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
-
1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium)
-
1/4 cup honey
-
2 tbsp olive oil
-
2 garlic cloves, minced
-
1 tsp grated fresh ginger (optional)
-
1 tbsp rice vinegar or lemon juice (for balance)
-
Salt and black pepper, to taste
For the Veggies:
-
1 red bell pepper, sliced
-
1 zucchini, sliced
-
1 cup broccoli florets
-
1 cup baby carrots, halved
-
1 small red onion, sliced
-
1 tbsp olive oil
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
-
Optional: sesame seeds and green onion for garnish
Instructions
Make the marinade:
In a bowl or zip-top bag, mix soy sauce, honey, olive oil, garlic, ginger, and vinegar. Add chicken and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight for best flavor).
Preheat oven:
Set to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
Prep veggies:
In a large bowl, toss vegetables with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Assemble the sheet pan:
Arrange marinated chicken pieces on the baking sheet. Spread the veggies around the chicken in an even layer.
Bake:
Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until chicken is fully cooked (internal temp 165°F) and veggies are tender. For more caramelization, broil for 2–3 minutes at the end.
Serve:
Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions if desired. Serve with rice, quinoa, or as is!
Notes
-
Add a little sriracha or red pepper flakes to the marinade for heat.
-
Swap veggies with what you have—green beans, mushrooms, or sweet potatoes work great.
-
Use parchment for easy cleanup and no sticking!
