Honey Lemon Garlic Chicken

Ingredients

• 600 g (1.3 lbs) chicken thighs
• 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable stock
• Juice of 2 lemons (about 1/4 cup)
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 4 carrots, cut into chunks
• 450 g (1 lb) baby potatoes, halved
• 2 bunches broccolini (optional)
• Olive oil spray

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 425°F and lightly grease a large oven-safe dish with cooking spray.

2. 2

   In a mixing jug, whisk together the stock, honey, garlic, lemon juice, soy sauce, salt, and pepper.

3. 3

   Place the chicken, carrots, and potatoes in the prepared dish. Pour the honey lemon garlic sauce over everything and toss gently to coat. Spread the ingredients out in an even layer and spray the top with a little more oil.

4. 4

   Cover the dish with foil or top with a lid. Bake in the oven for 35 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender.

5. 5

   In the final 15 minutes of baking, place the broccolini on top of the dish to steam lightly. Alternatively, blanch it on the stovetop in boiling water for 2–3 minutes (as pictured).

6. 6

   Remove from the oven, divide the chicken and veggies among bowls, and pour the pan juices into a serving jug to drizzle over each portion.
