Instructions

  1. Optional but recommended: Brine the chicken in my homemade brine for 3-5 hours.
  2. Pre-heat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with foil or spray it with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
  3. Whisk 3 tbsp of olive oil, honey, dijon mustard, balsamic vinegar, 1/4 tsp salt, and garlic seasoning until emulsified. Toss the butternut squash and broccoli in remaining olive oil and 1-2 tbsp of the honey dijon sauce. Set aside.
  4. While the oven pre-heats, pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel and pound to an even thickness. Slather the chicken with 2-3 tbsp of the honey dijon sauce and season with 1/4 tsp salt. Set aside.
  5. Once the oven is pre-heated, add the chicken and butternut squash to the baking sheet in a single layer. Bake at 425°F for 10 minutes, then brush the chicken with more honey dijon sauce. Add the broccoli and continue baking for 13-18 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F in the thickest part of the chicken.
  6. Brush the chicken with more honey dijon sauce before serving.

Notes

  • Brining vs marinating: If you skip the brine, be sure to marinate the chicken in the honey dijon sauce for at least 30 mins to 2 hours. You may want to make extra sauce to fully coat the chicken while marinating.
  • Mustard types: I used a combination of 1 1/2 tbsp Dijon Mustard, 1 tbsp Grey Poupon (stoneground mustard), and 1/2 tbsp whole grain mustard to achieve the sauce you see pictured here.
  • For deeper browning on the butternut squash, bake the squash alone for 10 minutes before adding the chicken to the sheet pan, or bake it on a separate sheet pan to reduce crowding.
