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
- Combine honey, soy sauce, garlic, and vinegar in a bowl to make the honey garlic sauce.
- Pour half of the sauce into a large freezer bag with the chicken thighs, marinating for 30-60 minutes or overnight. Refrigerate the remaining sauce.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the chicken thighs on one side of the prepared baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, mix salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Season the chicken thighs with this mixture, saving some for the vegetables.
- In a medium bowl, combine the potatoes and green beans with oil and the remaining seasoning until well coated. Transfer to the other side of the baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
- While baking, take the remaining sauce and heat in a saucepan. Whisk in corn starch and simmer until thickened, stirring frequently.
- After 30 minutes, take the baking sheet out and brush the chicken with the thickened sauce. Return to the oven for 5 more minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender.
Notes
Marinate the chicken for longer if time allows for more flavor.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables like carrots or zucchini based on preference.
Ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F for safety.
