Ingredients

For the Chicken

  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1/4 cup hot honey (or regular honey mixed with red pepper flakes)
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

For the Vegetables

  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced into half-moons
  • fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Method

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • In a bowl, combine hot honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, and onion powder to create the marinade.
  • Place the chicken thighs in a resealable bag or bowl. Pour half of the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
  • While the chicken is marinating, slice the zucchini into half-moons. In a bowl, drizzle the zucchini with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

Cooking

  • On a large baking sheet, arrange the marinated chicken thighs in the center and scatter the coated zucchini around the chicken.
  • Drizzle the remaining marinade over the chicken and zucchini.
  • Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the zucchini is tender.
  • Remove from the oven and sprinkle chopped parsley over the chicken and zucchini before serving.
