One Pan Honey Garlic Chicken And Veggies

With the many, more volaille portion recipes I bed been cooking lately, I've had quite a few requests for recipes using fearful breasts instead. Now I moldiness let that there's nix much juicier than a bone-in, skin-on volaille thigh but this honey flavourer chicken serving does descend to a shut agreement.

It's flatbottomed advisable when you prepare your veggies alongside that saccharine and appetizing seasoning sauce, letting the juices run modify as your vegetables get roasted to crisp-tender flawlessness. You can also add in solon veggies to your liking but I highly praise being careful of the cooking reading depending on the stalklike.

Now this is truly a one pan nutrition, and if you truly poorness to forbear on dishes, I recommend placing the hot wrapping at the region of plateau and eating trabeated out of the pan. There's absolutely no disgrace in doing so. No shame at all.

One Pan Honey Garlic Chicken And Veggies Recipe
Caprese Chicken cooked right in a sweet, garlic balsamic glaze with juicy cherry tomatoes, fresh basil and topped with melted mozzarella cheese!

Ingredients

• 6 skinless , bone-in chicken thighs
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• cracked black pepper , to taste
• 1 tablespoon olive oil (or a light spray of cooking oil spray)
• 2 tablespoons minced garlic
• 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
• 2 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar , packed
• 1 1/2 cups grape or cherry tomatoes , divided
• 8 0z (250 g) fresh mozzarella cheese (or Bocconcini), cut into 6x 1/2-inch slices
• 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves , chiffonade

Balsamic Glaze: (Optional To Serve)

• 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar , packed

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 210°C | 410°F.
2. Season each chicken thigh with the oregano, basil, salt and pepper.
3. Heat the oil (or cooking spray) in a large oven-proof pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken on both sides until golden brown, about 4 minutes each side. Transfer chicken to a plate; drain most of the excess oil, leaving about a teaspoon worth.
4. Return the skillet back to the stove; fry garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute). Add the vinegar and brown sugar; stirring to combine while heating through. Bring to a simmer, while stirring occasionally, until glaze has thickened (about 5-6 minutes).
5. Return the chicken to the pan, turning in the glaze to evenly coat. Add 1 cup of the tomatoes, whole, around the chicken and place the chicken into the oven. Bake until the chicken is completely cooked through (about 30 minutes). Top each chicken with a slice of mozzarella cheese; return back into the oven for a further 5 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
6. Slice the remaining 1/2 cup tomatoes in half; place them on top of the cheese; pour over some of the balsamic sauce from the pan and garnish with basil. Serve immediately.

Optional:

1. If wanting to serve with extra balsamic glaze (as pictured above), make your glaze while the chicken is in the oven. Combine the vinegar and sugar in a small pot and bring to the boil. Reduce heat, allowing to simmer while stirring occasionally, until the glaze is thickened and reduced by half (about 5-6 minutes). Drizzle over the chicken when ready to serve.
