Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into 1.5-inch pieces
- 1.5 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to create the sauce.
- Place the cubed potatoes in a large bowl. Pour half of the honey mustard sauce over the potatoes and toss to coat them evenly.
- Spread the coated potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Add the chicken pieces to the same bowl. Pour the remaining half of the honey mustard sauce over the chicken and toss to coat.
- Arrange the coated chicken pieces among the potatoes on the baking sheet, ensuring everything is in a single layer for even cooking.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- You can briefly broil for the last 1-2 minutes if you desire more browning on the chicken, watching carefully to prevent burning.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- For crispier potatoes, you can parboil the potato cubes for 5 minutes before tossing them with the sauce and baking.
- If you use chicken breasts, cut them slightly smaller than the thighs to ensure they cook through at the same time.
- You can add 1 cup of broccoli florets during the last 15 minutes of baking for added vegetables.
