Frequently Asked Questions
This recipe doesn’t call for marinating the chicken in the sauce, but you certainly can if you wish. I find that adding the sauce over top and baking for another 2-3 minutes brings plenty of flavour to the chicken and the veggies.
I used chicken breasts for this recipe, but you could also try making it using diced boneless skinless chicken thighs.
One of the best parts of this recipe is that everything is made in one pan. If you prefer to make your chicken in the air fryer, you can follow my air fryer chicken breasts recipe then drizzle the chicken with the honey mustard sauce when it's done cooking. You'll need to cook the veggies separately.
This recipe is great for meal prep, and will last in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can also ingredient prep by chopping up the veggies and chicken and making the sauce a few days in advance.
Feel free to swap out the veggies in the recipe card for any vegetables of your choice. This honey mustard sheet pan chicken would also be good with butternut squash, parsnips, green beans, asparagus, broccoli and bell peppers.
Storing and reheating
This baked honey mustard chicken is an excellent dish to make ahead of time. Prep the chicken, potatoes and veggies and store them in the refrigerator in an airtight container before baking. Prepare the sauce and store separately in a covered container.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Sprinkle some water over top before reheating the leftovers in the microwave. To reheat in a skillet, cook the leftovers over medium-low heat with the lid on until everything is heated through, about 5 minutes.
Freezing this recipe
This isn’t the best dish to freeze after it has been cooked. This is because the texture and flavour of the potatoes and brussels sprouts can change during the thawing process. However, you can easily freeze any chicken you might have left over. Store it in an airtight container and freeze for up to 3 months.

Comments & Reviews
Rhonda says
Hi, I’m want to try this recipe, but I’m not a fan of mustard. I have an old bottle of Gulden’s Spicy Brown Mustard, but don’t wish to go out and buy two more mustard flavors. Will it make this recipe less delicious if I just use the mustard I have or is the grainy mustard and Dijon mustard a critical part of the flavor?
Taylor Stinson says
Hi Rhonda! I believe the mustard you have will work perfectly fine. That said, if you don’t like mustard this recipe does really have that flavor so I’m not sure you would like it. Just wanted to provide that heads up!
