Prepare a complete, flavorful meal with this simple recipe for chicken baked with potatoes in a sweet and tangy honey mustard sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
  • 1.5 lbs small yellow or red potatoes, quartered
  • 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
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, thyme, and garlic powder to create the sauce. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  3. Place the quartered potatoes on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle half of the honey mustard sauce over the potatoes and toss to coat them evenly. Spread the potatoes into a single layer.
  4. Place the chicken pieces among the potatoes on the baking sheet. Pour the remaining honey mustard sauce over the chicken, ensuring all sides are coated.
  5. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
  6. For extra browning, you can switch the oven to broil for the last 2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  7. Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use small potatoes, like Yukon Gold or new potatoes, as they cook at a similar rate to the chicken.
  • If you prefer crispier potatoes, toss them with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil separately before adding the sauce.
  • Chicken thighs stay more moist than breasts during baking. Adjust cook time if using thin-cut chicken breasts.
