If you’re looking for an easy meal to throw together that requires basically zero clean up, I got you covered with this One Pan Honey Mustard Chicken and Veggies recipe. If you’re looking for a meal to meal prep, well, you can try with this one but I bet you there won’t be any leftovers once you taste this.
That was my original plan. Eat it for dinner and save the rest for the following day. Didn’t quite happen that way. Every time I make this for dinner for my boyfriend and I… It’s gone. The honey mustard caramelizes the potatoes and green beans and it’s just *too* delicious.
Like I said, my boyfriend loves this. It’s his birthday today so we’ll be going out to dinner tonight. BUT I made this for him last night as a pre-birthday dinner being it’s one of his favorites. Besides tasting amazing, another reason I like it is because I usually have everything I need for it already or I’ll just have to add green beans to my shopping list. It’s a pretty inexpensive meal to make, all said and done.
I usually use the honey mustard dressing from Primal Kitchen. It adds so much flavor and *I think* the avocado oil in the dressing helps to roast the veggies better while also caramelizing them – without adding extra oil. You can also make this without the dressing by adding Dijon mustard in it’s place. I’ll include that option in the recipe. I’ve made it both ways if I accidentally run out of our beloved honey mustard dressing.
Pro tip: If you have this dressing, try marinating chicken or shrimp in it in a Ziploc for a few hours before baking. It’s one of my favorite ways to prepare protein for salads.
The rosemary isn’t REQUIRED for this recipe, either. It does add a nice flavor though. If you don’t have any fresh sprigs on hand, throw in a teaspoon of dried rosemary before putting it in the oven. Or skip it all together if you don’t have the dried herb. 🙂
