Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar, 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp paprika to make the glaze.
  2. Step 2: Place 4 chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Season both sides with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
  3. Step 3: Arrange 1 lb baby carrots and 1 lb broccoli florets around the chicken on the baking sheet. Drizzle with 1/2 cup olive oil and toss to coat evenly, then season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  4. Step 4: Brush the chicken with half of the glaze, then bake for 20 minutes until the chicken is mostly cooked through.
  5. Step 5: Remove from oven, brush with the remaining glaze, and return to oven for 10-15 minutes more until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and vegetables are tender with golden edges.
  6. Step 6: Let rest for 5 minutes before serving with extra glaze drizzled over the top.
