Instructions:
Step 1: Season the Chicken
Season the chicken thighs on both sides with salt and pepper.
Set aside while prepping vegetables and sauce.
Step 2: Brown the Chicken
In a large oven-safe skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat, melt a few tablespoons of butter.
Add chicken thighs skin-side down and cook for 5 minutes per side until golden brown.
Remove from pan and set aside.
Step 3: Sauté the Vegetables
In the same pan (add a bit more butter if needed), sauté:
Chopped onion for 2–3 minutes until softened
Add minced garlic and cook 1 minute more
Toss in potato chunks and carrots, stirring to coat in butter and aromatics
Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened and golden.
Stir in chopped parsley before transferring everything to an oven-safe baking dish or roasting tray.
Place chicken thighs on top of the potatoes.
Step 4: Make the Sticky Glaze
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine:
Butter
Honey
Sweet chili sauce
Soy sauce
Mustard
Whisk well and simmer just until smooth and slightly thickened.
Pour this delicious glaze evenly over the chicken and potatoes.
Step 5: Bake Until Golden & Tender
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Transfer everything to the oven and bake uncovered for 40 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the potatoes are fork-tender.
Baste the chicken halfway through baking for extra shine and flavor.
Step 6: Serve Hot & Flavorful
Once done, remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with rice, crusty bread, or alongside steamed greens.
Tips for Success:
Use Real Butter: For best flavor—don’t substitute with margarine unless necessary.
Cut Evenly: Cut potato pieces about the same size so they cook evenly.
Glaze Magic: Adjust sweetness or spice by adding more honey or chili sauce.
Make Ahead Option: Prep the veggies and chicken earlier in the day—glaze before baking.
Meal Prep Friendly: Keeps well in the fridge for up to 4 days—reheat gently in oven or microwave.
Serving Suggestions:
Pair with roasted asparagus or green beans for balance.
Great with mashed potatoes or over rice for extra comfort.
Ideal for weeknight dinners, family gatherings, or lunch leftovers.
