One-pan chicken with roasted potatoes and broccoli in a sweet honey glaze.
Avo's Tip
Use chicken thighs here—they stay juicy under high heat and caramelize better than breasts.
Keep broccoli in larger florets so it roasts instead of steaming.
If your glaze browns too fast, tent loosely with foil for the final few minutes.
No chicken thighs? Drumsticks cook in the same time; breasts work but watch the temperature.
No honey? Maple syrup or agave gives the same sticky glaze.
Different vegetables? Any dense vegetable works — parsnips, turnips, or beets all roast well here.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before you start cooking.
Can I use chicken thighs instead of breasts?
Yes. Thighs stay juicier and are more forgiving; just cook until fully done.
How do I prevent the glaze from burning?
Add the glaze later in cooking and watch closely near the end, especially if it has honey or sugar.
Can I add vegetables to the pan?
Yes. Use quick-roasting vegetables and cut them evenly so everything finishes at the same time.
Storage & Reheating
Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
Reheat: Reheat in a 375°F oven for 8–10 minutes or microwave gently. Freezer: No — roasted potatoes lose their texture once frozen.
Why It Works
Everything roasts on one pan — chicken, potatoes, and broccoli — staggered by cook time so nothing over- or under-cooks.
The honey glaze caramelizes in the final minutes of roasting, giving the chicken a sticky, lacquered finish without any stovetop work.

Ingredients
1
1½ lb chicken thighs (boneless, skinless)
2
1 lb baby potatoes, halved
3
3 cups broccoli florets
4
⅓ cup honey
5
2 tbsp soy sauce
6
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
7
¾ tsp kosher salt
8
½ tsp black pepper
9
1 tsp garlic powder
10
½ tsp smoked paprika
11
2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
1
Heat the oven to 425°F and line a large sheet pan with parchment.
2
Toss the potatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil, half the salt, and pepper. Spread cut-side down on the pan.
3
Roast the potatoes for 10 minutes until the bottoms start turning golden.
4
Whisk the honey, soy sauce, Dijon, garlic powder, and smoked paprika until smooth.
5
Coat the chicken thighs with half of the honey glaze.
6
Add the chicken to the pan, nestling it among the potatoes.
7
Toss the broccoli with the remaining olive oil and salt, then scatter it on the pan.
8
Brush the remaining glaze over the chicken.
9
Roast for 10 minutes, until the chicken is caramelized and the broccoli is tender with crisp edges.
10
Rest for 2 minutes before serving so the glaze sets slightly.
Quick Fixes
Glaze burning: Add the honey glaze only in the last 10 minutes of roasting — honey caramelizes fast and burns if it's on too long.
Potatoes not cooking through: Give them a 10-minute head start before adding chicken and broccoli.
Broccoli drying out: Toss broccoli with a little extra olive oil and add it in the last 12–15 minutes only.
