How to Make Honey Mustard Chicken and Potatoes.

1. Prepare the Sauce

In a small bowl whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil garlic, paprika, thyme, salt, and black pepper until smooth.

2. Season the Chicken

Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Spread half of the honey mustard mixture evenly over all of the chicken, making sure every piece is covered.

4. Bake Until Golden

Preheat oven to 400 F 200 C. Roast for 35-45 minutes until the potatoes are soft and the chicken is 165 F 74 C.

5. Serve and Enjoy

Rest the chicken for a few minutes. Garnish with parsley, and serve with a fresh green salad or some boiled vegetables.

Tips for Better Flavor

– Cut potatoes into pieces of about the same size.

– Choose Dijon mustard for a subtle tang.

– Flip the potatoes over halfway through baking to allow them to brown on each side.

– Don’t stuff the baking dish.
