Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp honey or brown sugar
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp Italian herbs (oregano, basil, thyme, or rosemary)
  • 4 cups mixed vegetables (bell peppers, zucchini, carrots, broccoli, or cherry tomatoes)
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, olive oil, garlic, Italian herbs, salt, and pepper.
  2. Place chicken in a shallow dish or zip-top bag, pour half of the glaze over it, and marinate for 15–30 minutes.
  3. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  4. Chop vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
  5. Arrange marinated chicken and vegetables on the sheet pan. Drizzle with remaining glaze.
  6. Roast for 25–30 minutes, or until chicken reaches 165°F internally and vegetables are tender.
  7. Remove from oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Chicken thighs work well for juicier results.
  • For heartier meals, add potatoes or sweet potatoes, roasting them longer before adding other veggies.
  • Salmon or shrimp can be substituted for chicken, adjusting cook times.
  • Double the recipe using two sheet pans for even roasting.
  • Check doneness with a meat thermometer (165°F for chicken).
