Make easy, flavorful honey garlic chicken thighs and vegetables on one sheet pan for a quick dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6–8 chicken thighs, boneless and skinless, about 1 1/2 – 1 3/4 pounds
  • 2 red bell peppers
  • 2 green bell peppers
  • 1/2 c ketchup
  • 2/3 c honey
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 c soy sauce (use tamari for gluten free)
  • 1 T melted butter
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp cracked pepper
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt (adjust to taste)
  • sesame seeds (optional for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together ketchup, honey, garlic, soy sauce, pepper, butter, and salt.
  3. Place chicken thighs in the sauce and toss to coat them completely.
  4. While the chicken marinates, remove stems and seeds from the peppers and slice them thinly.
  5. Place chicken on a parchment lined or oiled baking pan.
  6. Toss peppers quickly in the remaining sauce and spread them evenly around the chicken.
  7. Spread any extra sauce over the chicken.
  8. Bake for 25 – 30 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  9. Carefully drain any excess liquid from the pan after removing it from the oven.
  10. Serve over rice. Top with sesame seeds if you like.

Notes

  • Double the sauce recipe if you want extra sauce for serving, and warm the extra sauce before serving. This is helpful if you plan on having leftovers.
  • Allow the chicken to rest for about 5 minutes before you serve it for juicier results.
