Honey Mustard Chicken with Baked Veggies

Step 1

Wash and dry all produce. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Halve, peel, and cut red onion into wedges. Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into ½-inch-thick half-moons. Cut sweet potato into 1-inch cubes. Place veggies on a baking sheet. Toss with 1 TBSP olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast until tender and lightly browned, 25-35 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, mince or grate garlic. Whisk garlic, honey, 1 TBSP whole grain mustard, 1 tsp white wine vinegar, and 1 TBSP olive oil in a medium bowl. Season generously with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.

Step 3

Place chicken in marinade and toss to coat.

Step 4

Heat a medium ovenproof pan over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and sear in pan until no longer pink on outside, 2-3 minutes on each side. Brush chicken with marinade as it cooks.

Step 5

Once chicken is browned and sticky, pour over any remaining marinade. (TIP: If you don’t have an ovenproof pan, transfer chicken and marinade to a baking dish.) With 8-10 minutes to go on veggies, transfer pan with chicken to oven. Roast until chicken is firm and juices run clear when cut.

Step 6

Divide chicken and veggies between plates. Drizzle with any remaining sauce from pan. Tear leaves from parsley and sprinkle on top.
