Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup honey, 3 tbsp soy sauce, and 4 cloves minced garlic until combined.
  2. Step 2: Toss 1 pound halved baby potatoes in 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper; spread evenly on a large rimmed baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Meanwhile, rub 6 bone-in chicken thighs with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. After 15 minutes, add the chicken thighs to the baking sheet and brush them generously with half of the honey-garlic mixture.
  4. Step 4: Roast chicken and potatoes for 20 minutes, then add 12 ounces trimmed green beans to the sheet pan, drizzle with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, and brush the chicken with the rest of the honey-garlic glaze.
  5. Step 5: Continue roasting for another 10-15 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, potatoes are tender, and green beans are crisp-tender. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
