Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp smoked paprika, and 1 tbsp olive oil to make a glaze.
  2. Step 2: Place 6 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs on a large sheet pan. Season all over with 1 1/2 tsp salt and 1 tsp black pepper, then brush the honey-garlic glaze evenly over the thighs.
  3. Step 3: Arrange 2 cups baby carrots, 2 cups halved Brussels sprouts, and 1 medium red onion cut into wedges around the chicken on the sheet pan. Drizzle vegetables with remaining 2 tbsp olive oil and toss lightly to coat.
  4. Step 4: Roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, turning vegetables halfway through, until chicken skin is caramelized and internal temperature registers 165°F, and vegetables are tender and golden.
  5. Step 5: Remove from oven and sprinkle 1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme over the chicken and vegetables before serving warm.
