    I think the universal search of anyone who is responsible for feeding their family is "quick and easy weeknight dinners". Anything that is one pot, one pan, or one bowl always rates extra high in my book. It gets bonus points when it's fast to prepare, loaded with healthy vegetables, utilizes pantry and freezer ingredients, and is loved by everyone in the family.  

    This sheet pan dinner with chicken, potatoes, and veggies is a winner! The inspiration came from Carlsbad Cravings. As delicious as the original is, I simplified it and changed the cooking times.

    🥇Why it’s great!

    • Chicken stays moist without the extra step of brining.
    • The potatoes and green beans get roasted to perfection.
    • It will feed 6-8. Of course you can scale it down to fit your family if desired.
    Ingredients for Honey Mustard Chicken Sheet Pan Dinner (with veggies and potatoes) on the countertop.
    All the ingredients are easily found in your pantry or freezer.

    🍯 Ingredients

    Chicken breasts: Slice the chicken breasts in half so that they cook evenly. You can use boneless, skinless thighs, but that will change the cooking time.
    Potatoes: Russet, red, gold, fingerling, baby, or sweet potatoes will work. Just be sure to cut them all the same size.
    Green Beans: I prefer to use frozen small green beans known as haricots verts (pronunciation). However, fresh green beans work as well.
    Olive oil, kosher salt, pepper: These simple ingredients flavor the potatoes and green beans before roasting.
    Honey: Regular store-bought honey is preferred.
    Mustard: Two types of mustard make for a well rounded sauce. I use yellow and then either stone-ground or dijon depending on what is in the fridge or which one you prefer.
    Garlic: Fresh garlic that has been minced.
    Dried herbs & spices: Onion powder, paprika, parsley, and thyme add the perfect punch of flavor to the sauce.

    🔪 How to make Honey Mustard Chicken Breasts in the oven.

    This Honey Mustard Sheet Pan Dinner with Potatoes and Green Beans is so easy to throw together. In 3 steps dinner is ready.

    1. Prep your chicken, potatoes, and green beans.
      • To prep the chicken breasts trim off all the extra fat and then slice the breast in half horizontally. This will ensure that the breast isn’t too thick. Five minutes before placing on the sheet pan, sprinkle each side with kosher salt. It helps ensure moist chicken without the extra step of brining.
      • Cut the potatoes into similar sized pieces. That way they will all finish cooking at the same time.
      • If the green beans need to be trimmed, take a small handful and line up the stem end and trim the bunch all at once.
    2. Mix together the honey mustard sauce.
    3. Following the timing instructions place everything in the oven. Note: If you have a double oven or three racks in your oven you can place each ingredient on its own sheet pan. If your oven only has two racks then place half of each ingredient between two sheet pans like shown in the pictures. My favorite sheet pans are from Sam's Club. You can't beat $6 a pan!

    Bam! Dinner is done. Of course you can serve salad and/or bread to go with this, but it makes a fantastic dinner all on its own.

    👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 For a crowd

    Honey Mustard Chicken Sheet Pan Dinner (with veggies and potatoes) is only recommended for serving to more than 8 if you have access to two ovens. If you do, feel free to double the recipe and split evenly between the two ovens.

    🙋 Questions and Answers

    Can I freeze Honey Mustard Chicken Breasts and veggies ahead?

    This meal is truly great for stashing in the freezer! I like to make one for tonight and one for the freezer. Prep the chicken breasts (don’t salt them) and mix up the honey mustard sauce. Freeze separately in the container of your choice. I buy frozen green beans from Trader Joe’s so they are ready to go. The only thing that has to be prepared fresh are the potatoes.

    Can Honey Mustard Chicken Sheet Pan Dinner be prepped ahead?

    This recipe is such an easy way to do meal prep. Follow the steps as listed above but place in the refrigerator up to two days ahead. As stated above, the potatoes should be cut at the time of cooking.

    How to keep chicken breasts moist on the sheet pan while baking?

    The easiest way to keep chicken breasts moist when baking is to sprinkle them with kosher salt five minutes before covering in the sauce.

    👨🏼‍🍳 Tips & Tricks

    • Cut the chicken breasts in half horizontally and sprinkle with kosher salt before baking. The salt acts like a dry brine to keep the breasts moist.
    • Cut the potatoes as evenly as possible so that they all finish cooking at the same time.
    • Use two types of mustard for a well rounded honey mustard sauce.

    Ingredients

    Sheet Pan Ingredients

    • 4 chicken breasts sliced in half horizontally
    • 1 lb green beans trimmed, if needed
    • 2 lbs potatoes cut evenly
    • 2 tablespoon olive oil divided
    • 2¼ teaspoon kosher salt divided
    • ½ teaspoon pepper

    Honey Mustard Sauce

    • ⅓ cup honey
    • 3 tablespoon yellow mustard
    • 3 tablespoon stone ground or dijon mustard
    • 1½ teaspoon garlic minced
    • 1 teaspoon onion powder
    • 1 tsp paprika
    • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
    • 1 tsp dried thyme
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    Prevent your screen from going dark

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 450°F. Line two sheet pans with foil and spray lightly with non-stick spray. **If you have a double oven or three racks, you can opt to cook each ingredient on its own sheet pan.
    • Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and, ¼ teaspoon of black pepper. Place on cookie sheet and set in the oven. Set the timer for 10 minutes.
    • While the potatoes begin roasting salt each side of the chicken breasts using ¾ teaspoon of kosher salt. Allow to sit while you mix together the honey, mustard, garlic, onion powder, paprika, dried parsley, dried thyme with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Stir until combined.
    • When the timer goes off, place the chicken breasts onto their own sheet pan and brush liberally with honey mustard sauce. You should use all the sauce. Place into the oven and set the timer for 20 minutes.
    • In the meantime, toss the green beans with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, ½ teaspoon salt and, ¼ teaspoon of black pepper. Once the timer goes off place the green beans on the sheet pan with the potatoes. Place back in the oven and set the timer for 20 more minutes. If the green beans look squished, you can place some of them with the chicken.
    • Remove everything from the oven and serve.

    Notes

    Tips & Tricks
    • Cut the chicken breasts in half horizontally and sprinkle with kosher salt before baking. The salt acts like a dry brine to keep the breasts moist.
    • Cut the potatoes as evenly as possible so that they all finish cooking at the same time.
    • Use two types of mustard for a well rounded honey mustard sauce.
     
    Notes
    If your chicken breasts are on the small side check them once the green beans have been in for 10 minutes. If they are done remove them and keep cooking the potatoes and green beans until they are finished.

      This is not "One sheet pan" recipe. Why is it posted in this section? What a hassle. Will not make it again.

        Hi Kathy, I'm sorry you were frustrated. Since this recipe makes enough for 6 people, we find it easier to use 2 sheet pans. But please feel free to make less and include it all on one sheet.

      Within 15 min of grabbing the chicken in the oven smoke started coming out of the oven and my fire alarm went off! The mustard sauce was totally burnt all over the pan. I had to remove the chicken breasts from the sheet pan and instead put them in a 9x13 baking dish. It was a disaster. The foil in the sheet pan was crispy and black!!!

        I am so very sorry to hear this! I would love to help you problem solve this as I make this frequently without any trouble. Was your oven set at the correct temperature? Which part of the oven was the pan in?

      Wanted to love this so badly as I was looking for something healthy and quick … a last minute dinner. But typical sheet pan dinners only call for one sheet pan!
      Too much clean up for a quickie !

        This recipe is written to feed 8 people and, unfortunately all that food will not fit onto one sheet pan and still cook properly. However, if you are wanting to serve 4 or less, feel free to adjust the recipe and only use one sheet pan. The important tip for even cooking and crispy potatoes is to not overcrowd the pan. Either way it calls for lining the pan with foil in order to keep clean up at a minimum. If you end up making the recipe we would love to hear how it turns out.

          I did make it! I’m a fairly avid cook so was able to adjust to do on one pan. It was DELICIOUS!! The sauce for the chicken was amazing. My family gobbled it up..
          Thank you !!

      I used chicken thighs so I cooked them for 20 min @ 450 and then another 10 after the timer went off. For the green beans, I cooked with sweet potatoes and for the 20 minutes I reapplied olive oil.

          I am truly so sorry to hear that you had such a bad experience with this recipe. It is so frustrating to ruin food! I have made this many times and it has never burned. The pictures you see in the post are literally taken right after following the directions precisely. I would love to help you troubleshoot why this happened. Feel free to email me danielle at borrowedbites dot com if you want assistance.

            I think people are burning because when you said cut horizontally maybe they take it to read “butterfly” (on the horizon, like I did) and maybe you just meant to cut in half but having the breasts be the same thickness as they started out as. This would require less cooking time for sure since they are thinner when butterflied. Might be why people are having bad luck. I am making it now and mine are done at 20 min for sure. Thanks for the recipe!

              Hello! We actually do mean to 'butterfly" the chicken breast. The chicken breasts we get are quite large so cutting them helps them to cook evenly and with plenty of flavor. Of course, if you have smaller chicken breasts skip the cutting in half or remove them from the oven earlier. Glad you enjoyed the recipe and thanks for taking the time to comment!

      The recipe calls for the chicken to bake for a total of 40 minutes at 450 which is way too long. At 450, Chicken breasts should only need about 20 min top.

        Feel free to begin checking the chicken breasts at 20 minutes, but we make this all the time and it needs 40 minutes. Maybe your chicken breasts are smaller than ours? If you try it, please let us know how it turns out. Have a great day!
