A quick and easy sheet pan dinner featuring crispy bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs glazed with a sweet and tangy honey mustard sauce, roasted alongside tender, mellow radishes. Perfect for busy weeknights with minimal cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 1.5 lbs / 680 g)
  • 1 pound (450 g) radishes, halved or quartered depending on size
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Optional: fresh thyme or rosemary sprigs for roasting

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until glossy and pourable.
  3. Wash and trim radishes, cutting larger ones into quarters. Toss radishes in about 1 tablespoon of the glaze.
  4. Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Rub the remaining glaze evenly over each piece, getting under the skin if possible.
  5. Arrange radishes in a single layer on one side of a large rimmed baking sheet. Place chicken thighs skin-side up on the other side, leaving space between pieces.
  6. Nestle fresh thyme or rosemary sprigs between the chicken and radishes, if using.
  7. Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes. Halfway through, check and gently toss radishes with pan juices if they look dry. Chicken skin should be golden and crisp, and internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  8. Optional: Broil for 2-3 minutes at the end for extra crispiness, watching closely to prevent burning.
  9. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Radishes should be tender and caramelized on the edges.

Notes

Pat chicken skin dry thoroughly for crispiness. Do not overcrowd the pan to allow even roasting. Rotate pan halfway through cooking to avoid hot spots. Broil at the end for extra crispiness if desired. Can marinate chicken in glaze up to 2 hours ahead. For leftovers, reheat gently in oven to maintain texture.
