🛒 Ingredients:

For the Chicken:

• 2 lbs chicken loin (or chicken breast/loin roast)

• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• 1/4 cup honey 🍯

• 1/4 cup soy sauce

• 3 cloves garlic, minced 🧄

• 1 teaspoon ginger, freshly grated

• 1 teaspoon black pepper

• 1 teaspoon salt

For the Vegetables:

• 2 cups mixed vegetables (e.g., carrots, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, or potatoes) 🥦🥕

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• Salt and pepper, to taste

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

✅ Step 1: Preheat the Oven

• Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

• Lightly oil a roasting pan or baking dish.

✅ Step 2: Make the Honey Garlic Glaze

In a small bowl, mix together:

• 1/4 cup honey

• 1/4 cup soy sauce

• 3 minced garlic cloves

• 1 tsp grated ginger

• 1 tsp black pepper

• 1 tsp salt

Stir well until fully combined.

✅ Step 3: Prepare the Chicken

• Rub the chicken loin with 2 tbsp olive oil.

• Place it in the center of the roasting pan.

• Pour the honey garlic glaze evenly over the chicken, turning it to coat all sides.

✅ Step 4: Add the Vegetables

• Toss the vegetables in 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper.

• Arrange them around the chicken in the roasting pan.

✅ Step 5: Roast

• Roast uncovered for 45–50 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

• Baste the chicken with pan juices once or twice during roasting for extra flavor and moisture.

• If needed, broil for the last 2–3 minutes for a caramelized finish.

✅ Step 6: Rest and Serve

• Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

• Serve with the roasted veggies and a drizzle of the pan sauce. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

💡 Flavor Boost Tips:

• Marinate Ahead: Let the chicken marinate in the honey garlic glaze for 2–4 hours (or overnight) for deeper flavor.

• Add citrus: A splash of lemon or orange juice brightens the glaze beautifully.

• Swap the protein: Works just as well with turkey loin or boneless pork roast.

🍽️ Serving Suggestions:

• Serve over rice, mashed potatoes, or quinoa.

• Pair with a light salad or crusty bread for a hearty meal.
