Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup honey, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 5 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar until combined.
  2. Step 2: On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss 3 peeled and chunked medium carrots, 1 lb halved baby potatoes, and 3 cups broccoli florets with 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1 tsp dried thyme until evenly coated.
  3. Step 3: Arrange 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs skin side up on the vegetables, then brush each piece generously with the honey garlic sauce.
  4. Step 4: Roast in the oven for 35-40 minutes until the chicken skin is golden and crisp and an internal thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165°F, stirring the vegetables halfway through for even caramelization.
