Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat 1.5 lbs chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Step 2: Whisk 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp honey, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp rice vinegar in a small bowl.
  3. Step 3: Arrange 2 cups broccoli florets, 1 sliced bell pepper, and 1 sliced medium zucchini on a large sheet pan. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil and season with salt and pepper, tossing to coat.
  4. Step 4: Place chicken thighs skin-side up on top of vegetables, then brush with half the honey-garlic sauce.
  5. Step 5: Roast for 35 minutes, basting with remaining sauce halfway through, until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) internally and vegetables are tender with golden edges.

Frequently asked questions

How long does Honey-Glazed Chicken & Roasted Veggie Sheet Pan take to make?

Total time is about 50 minutes (15 min prep + 35 min cook). Most home cooks find this fits comfortably into a weeknight; double the batch on Sunday for two dinners.

How do I store leftover Honey-Glazed Chicken & Roasted Veggie Sheet Pan?

Cool to room temperature within 2 hours, then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat covered in a 350°F oven for 10-12 minutes, or microwave at 70% power in 60-second bursts to keep chicken thighs from drying out.

Can I substitute ingredients in Honey-Glazed Chicken & Roasted Veggie Sheet Pan?

Yes — most ingredients in this recipe have flexible swaps. For oil, use any neutral high-smoke-point oil (avocado, grapeseed, refined coconut). For aromatics, dried herbs at ⅓ the volume of fresh work in a pinch. The full ingredient list is shoppable on Instacart so you can see substitutes in real time.

How do I scale Honey-Glazed Chicken & Roasted Veggie Sheet Pan for a different number of people?

The recipe is written for 4 servings. Multiply each ingredient by (your serving target / 4). Cook time stays roughly the same up to 2x; for 3-4x batches, switch from a skillet to a sheet pan or stockpot so the food isn't crowded — overcrowding steams instead of browns.

Is Honey-Glazed Chicken & Roasted Veggie Sheet Pan gluten-free?

Yes — this recipe is tagged gluten-free based on its ingredient list. Always cross-check labels for packaged ingredients (sauces, broths, condiments) since formulations vary by brand.
