Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk 3 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons honey, 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper until well combined.
- Step 2: Place 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs on a large rimmed baking sheet. Brush both sides of chicken with half the honey-lime mixture. Scatter 1 cup canned black beans (drained and rinsed), 1 cup frozen corn kernels, and 2 minced garlic cloves evenly around chicken.
- Step 3: Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the edges are slightly caramelized, stirring beans and corn halfway through to coat with juices.
- Step 4: Remove from oven and sprinkle 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro over the entire pan. Serve with lime wedges fresh from the fridge for squeezing on top.
