A simple recipe for chicken pieces and potatoes baked together with a sweet and smoky honey BBQ glaze.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into 1.5-inch pieces
  • 1.5 lbs Yukon Gold or red potatoes, quartered
  • 1 medium onion, cut into wedges
  • 1 cup honey BBQ sauce
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the quartered potatoes and onion wedges with the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the seasoned potatoes and onions in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 15 minutes to give the potatoes a head start.
  5. While the potatoes bake, place the chicken pieces in the same bowl and toss them with half of the honey BBQ sauce.
  6. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Push the potatoes and onions to the sides, creating space in the center.
  7. Add the sauced chicken pieces to the center of the baking sheet.
  8. Return the sheet pan to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes.
  9. Remove the pan again. Brush the remaining half of the BBQ sauce over the chicken and potatoes.
  10. Bake for a final 5 to 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F or 74°C) and the sauce is slightly caramelized.
  11. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For crispier potatoes, you can parboil them for 5 minutes before tossing with oil and spices.
  • If you use bone-in chicken pieces, increase the total cooking time by 10 to 15 minutes.
  • You can substitute sweet potatoes for white potatoes for a sweeter flavor profile.
