Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)
- 1 large head cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets
- 1 large head broccoli, cut into bite-sized florets
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Lemon wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, smoked paprika, 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using) to create the glaze.
-
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and place them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Before brushing raw chicken, set aside a small portion of glaze in a separate clean bowl for the later brushing step. Brush chicken with the rest.
-
In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower and broccoli florets with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, then season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
-
Arrange the vegetables evenly around the chicken breasts on the baking sheet, avoiding overcrowding to ensure even roasting.
-
Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
-
Remove the baking sheet, brush the chicken breasts with the remaining glaze, and gently toss the vegetables to turn them.
-
Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast an additional 5 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the vegetables are tender with slight caramelization.
-
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
-
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve warm with lemon wedges, if desired. Enjoy!
