Sheet Pan Hot Honey Chicken & Zucchini is a quick and flavorful meal that combines juicy chicken thighs with tender zucchini, all drizzled with sweet and spicy hot honey.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced into half-moons
  • 1/4 cup hot honey
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken thighs.
  4. In a separate bowl, toss the sliced zucchini with olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  5. Place the seasoned chicken thighs skin-side up on a large sheet pan. Arrange the zucchini around the chicken.
  6. Generously drizzle hot honey over the chicken and zucchini.
  7. Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the skin is crispy.
  8. Once cooked, remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley.
  9. Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving.
