The holidays are always a wonderful time of the year for food and food-filled gatherings, but what about the other days of the month where you're just waiting to get to the next event? This recipe is the perfect answer to your weeknight woes and you'll love this one-pan take on chicken and potatoes.

The star of this show is certainly the honey mustard glaze that coats the chicken, potatoes, and onions for a totally delicious, warming, and satisfying dinner option. But this meal wouldn't be complete without the best supporting ingredient – CarbSmart™ Potatoes from our friends at Green Giant™ Fresh!

Diet culture of years past might have tricked you into thinking, "carbs are bad." But the reality is the opposite! In fact, carbs are good and our bodies need carbohydrates to function. You can be smart about what you're putting into your body while enjoying carbohydrates.

Introducing the delicious CarbSmartâ„¢ potatoes from Green Giantâ„¢ Fresh! With 55% fewer carbs than rice or pasta, indulge in the creamy buttery flavor of this new potato variety. Baked, mashed, boiled, or grilled, these potatoes are Carbs Well Spentâ„¢.

A few notes about CarbSmartâ„¢ potatoes:

  • Provides 40% daily value of vitamin C

  • Offers 30% less carbs than a medium banana

  • Not just for mashing, these yellow-fleshed potatoes are very versatile and ideal for a variety of baked dishes, roasts, casseroles and stews

This recipe is SO easy but here's a few tips and tricks to creating the best Roasted Honey Mustard Chicken & Potatoes:

  • Bake Time: This will depend on the type and the thickness of the chicken you use. Your best bet is to use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken is fully cooked.

  • Protein: We opt for bone-in chicken thighs with the skin for added flavor but you can use boneless skinless breasts or another cut of meat if that's what you prefer! Adjust cooking time as needed.

  • Honey Mustard: This glaze should be thick enough to stick to the chicken but still pourable. You may need to add a couple tablespoons of warm water to create the right consistency. For even more protein, add a dollop of full fat greek yogurt.

As always, we love to see what you're cooking up, so please share your recipes to social media and tag us and our friends at Green Giantâ„¢ Fresh potatoes! Happy Holidays, friends.

Ingredients:

  • 5 bone-in chicken thighs with the skin or chicken of your choice

  • 3 cups Green Giantâ„¢ Fresh CarbSmartâ„¢ potatoes, cubed

  • 1 cup Green Giantâ„¢ Fresh yellow onions, sliced

  • 5 cloves garlic

  • 4 sprigs fresh thyme

  • 1 cup honey

  • 2 Tbsp dijon mustard

  • 3 Tbsp grainy mustard

  • 1 Tbsp fresh thyme, removed from the stems

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  • 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Directions:

  1. Pre heat your oven to 400F.

  2. Add cubed Green Giantâ„¢ Fresh potatoes and onions to a deep casserole dish that's large enough to fit potatoes and chicken thighs. Drizzle with 1 Tbsp olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and cover with aluminum foil. Bake covered for 30 minutes.

  3. While the potatoes and onions cook, trim the fat from the chicken thighs and pat dry.

  4. Make the honey mustard glaze by adding dijon mustard, grainy mustard, fresh thyme, garlic powder, and extra virgin olive oil to a jar with a tight fitting lid. Shake to mix and combine ingredients well. If the sauce is too thick to pour, add a little warm water 1 Tbsp at a time until you reach a pourable consistency.

  5. Remove casserole dish from the oven and add 4 sprigs of thyme along with 5 cloves of garlic and mix. Nestle chicken thighs on top of potatoes and onions. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with honey mustard glaze.

  6. Return to the oven and bake uncovered for 45 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken has reached 165F. Remove from the oven and serve. Enjoy!
