A quick and easy sheet pan meal featuring juicy honey garlic glazed chicken breasts and roasted vegetables, perfect for a wholesome weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs / 680g)
  • 2 cups broccoli florets (about 150g)
  • 2 medium carrots, sliced diagonally (approx. 150g)
  • 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1/4 cup honey (85g)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce (45ml) – use low sodium for less salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (30ml)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (15ml)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to preference)
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, black pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes if using.
  3. Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Place chicken in the bowl with the sauce and toss to coat evenly. Marinate for 5-10 minutes if time allows.
  4. In a separate bowl, toss broccoli florets, sliced carrots, and red bell pepper with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt.
  5. Spread the veggies evenly on a rimmed sheet pan, leaving space for the chicken breasts. Place the chicken on the pan and drizzle any leftover sauce over everything.
  6. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, turning the veggies halfway through. Chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and have a golden, sticky glaze.
  7. Optional: Broil for 2-3 minutes to caramelize the top, watching closely to avoid burning.
  8. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Do not overcrowd the pan to avoid steaming; roast in batches if necessary. Pat chicken dry for better glaze adherence. Marinate briefly for best flavor. Turn veggies halfway through roasting for even cooking. Broil briefly for extra caramelization but watch carefully to prevent burning. Simmer leftover sauce to thicken if desired before drizzling.
