HONEY MUSTARD CHICKEN WITH VEGETABLES
Yes, there are already lots of recipes posted for honey mustard chicken. But this one *is* different and more importantly, it is really good. I prefer this with chicken with bone as is is a bit more juicy, but you could switch to one pound of boneless chicken and reducing the cooking time.

Steps:
- Cut the chicken with the bone into two inch pieces (use a good sharp knife or kitchen shears). Mix together the flour with 1/8 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Dredge the chicken in the seasoned flour.
- Using a large non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil until hot. Add the chicken pieces and cook about 2 minutes per side until the chicken has a nice golden exterior. Transfer chicken to plate.
- Using the same skillet, add the red onions, green peppers, lemon zest, sage, garlic and remaining salt and pepper to the pan. Give a quick stir to scrape some of the bits on the bottom of the pan.
- Add the chicken broth, mustard and honey and bring the liquid to a low boil. Add the reserved chicken to the pan and cover. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables have softened.
- If you like a thicker sauce, bring the pan up to a boil and add a slurry of the water and cornstarch. Stir frequently until the sauce is bubbly and thick, about a minute or so.
- I like this with bulgar but rice, white or brown, would work well.

Tips:
- To ensure perfectly cooked chicken thighs, always preheat your oven before baking. This will help achieve an even and thorough cook throughout.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of honey and Dijon mustard in the sauce based on your preference for a sweeter or tangier flavor.
- For a crispy skin on the chicken thighs, pat them dry before seasoning and coating with the honey mustard sauce. This will help the sauce caramelize and create a delightful texture.
- To easily remove the spring vegetables from the sheet pan, line it with parchment paper or aluminum foil before roasting. This will prevent the vegetables from sticking and make cleanup a breeze.
- Don't overcrowd the sheet pan when roasting the chicken and vegetables. Give them enough space to cook evenly and prevent steaming.
- For a more vibrant color and enhanced flavor, choose fresh, brightly colored spring vegetables such as baby carrots, asparagus, or snap peas.
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, whisk together a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) and stir it into the remaining sauce in a saucepan over medium heat until thickened.
- Serve the honey mustard chicken thighs and spring vegetables immediately for the best flavor and texture. You can garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for an extra touch of freshness.
Conclusion:
The combination of tender, succulent chicken thighs, crisp-tender spring vegetables, and a tangy, sweet honey mustard sauce makes this recipe a delightful and flavorful meal. It's a perfect balance of flavors and textures, making it suitable for both casual weeknight dinners and special occasions. The versatility of the dish allows for customization based on personal preferences, whether it's adjusting the sauce's sweetness or adding different types of vegetables. With its ease of preparation and impressive presentation, this honey mustard chicken thighs and spring vegetables recipe is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
