Sheet Pan Honey Mustard Chicken and Veggies
We are such honey mustard chicken fans around here, so making a sheet pan chicken dinner with honey mustard was a no brainer. Like our Honey Mustard Chicken Wings or Creamy Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce for sweet potato fries. You find me a good honey mustard, and I’m putting it on everything, especially since, gasp, I’m not a ketchup fan!
We love sheet pan meals and have a variety of them! From easy breakfasts, like our Sheet Pan Classic Breakfast (Eggs, Bacon, Potatoes), to a seafood hit like our Sheet Pan Root Vegetable and Sage Pesto Salmon, to a game day favorite (Sheet Pan Buffalo Chicken and Veggie), and then wrapping it up with a 5-star steak dinner, Sheet Pan Marinated Steak Tips with Veggies, you’ll start to see the magic of sheet pan meals. They’re fairly hands off, come together quickly, and are truly delicious. It’s a weeknight easy dinner, that’s for sure!
Ingredients Needed
Veggies: Cauliflower or broccoli, green beans, carrots, potatoes, red onion. Truly, you can use any vegetables you’d like! My tip would be to make sure to cut them fairly evenly so they cook evenly!
Spices: Garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper, Olive oil or avocado oil
The Chicken Marinade: It’s simple, it’s delicious, and it’s everything you want for a honey mustard dish!
Boneless, skinless chicken breasts: Well first, you need chicken of course! Substitution: You can use chicken thighs here if you’d like!
Whole grain mustard: I love the mix of two different mustards here.
Dijon mustard: I love the mix of two different mustards here.
Honey: An essential! I love this honey or this honey, or if your local CSA or farmer’s market sells honey, grab it! Local honey is amazing.
Apple cider vinegar: A little acid helps balance it all out!
Salt and pepper
Other vegetables that would work great in this sheet pan chicken dinner:
- Asparagus
- Sweet Potatoes
- Winter Squash
Tips for sheet pan cooking:
- Sheet pan dinners are the best. Make sure to read the recipe all the way through (of course) and plan to use a timer! This way you can truly walk away from the oven and not have to worry about when you need to add anything for the next step.
- Do the prep ahead of time: You can prepare so much of this meal the night before so that right before cooking all you have to do is cook! Chop all the veggies (minus the eggplant, which may brown if left cut overnight) and prepare the chickpeas and spices in a bowl and cover overnight in the fridge. You can also prepare the meatball mixture the night before so all you have to do is scoop them when ready to bake.
- Use the correct size sheet pan. When we say sheet pan we are referring to the rimmed half sheet pan which is 18″ by 13″. The size of the sheet pan matters because you do not want to overcrowd the pan when cooking, so if you are using a smaller sheet pan you may need to use 2 to achieve the same result.
Why We’ve Been Buying Farmer Focus Chicken for Years
Chicken is the star of this dish, so it is incredibly important to use the best quality chicken! I am so happy to partner with my friends at Farmer Focus for today’s recipe!
If you’ve been a reader for a while, you know Farmer Focus has been my go-to, trusted chicken for years because they pride themselves in producing the highest quality meat grown on family-owned farms. You can 100% taste the difference. I love knowing that when I pick up Farmer Focus chicken at the grocery store, it’s the best there is and I don’t have to question whether it was raised in a humane way.

What to Serve with Sheet Pan Honey Mustard Chicken
This sheet pan meal is delicious on its own, but we also love pairing it with rice or quinoa.
Can I Meal Prep More? Like, Can I Double This Recipe?
Absolutely! You can actually break it up into two sheet pans, or throw on more chicken. Cut up too many veggies? The more the merrier, in my opinion! Just adjust the amount of oil/sauce as needed.

Notes
- You can alternatively use boneless, skinless chicken thighs.
- If your veggies need more time based on your desired likeness, remove chicken and set aside, and roast for 10 minutes longer or broil for 2-3 minutes to get them crispier.
- Want to make more for meal prep? You can totally use more. You can actually break it up into two sheet pans, or throw on more chicken. Cut up too many veggies? The more the merrier, in my opinion! Just adjust the amount of oil/sauce as needed.
