I just love one pan meals so much. I mean anything that minimizes the dishes that I have to do is something that I fall in love with. Because as a food blogger, we can have every single pot and pan dirty in the sink in one day. 90% of a food bloggers job consists of washing dishes. Seriously.

With an incredibly busy life as a mom one pan meals have just become my new jam. A side dish and the main course all in one pan is a new family favorite.

This chicken glazes so beautifully with a honey balsamic glaze. I LOVE balsamic vinegar. The sweet and tangy glaze is the perfect flavor on top of this chicken. The chicken is perfectly tender and juicy with the crisp pan seared top. You are going to love it!

This is the perfect one pan meal to feed your family this week. It is perfect for busy nights and full of delicious honey balsamic flavor. It became a new favorite at our house.

  1. I loved it but would recommend doing it with boneless skinless chicken so it will soak up the juices. I also would score it. I also after cutting my potatoes boiled them for like 15-20 mins before cooking with the chicken. Wouldn’t recommend using the olive oil in the pan with the chicken it burnt it and popped a lot. Make sure to have a good pan so it won’t burn. If you like the bone in skin on chicken I recommend marinating your chicken and extra 10-15 the longer the better. I after searing your chicken in the pan put it in for 40 mins perfect timing. Works great with green beans, asparagus, rice. Hope this helps.

  2. I used a whole chicken cut into portions and cooked it for 1 hour – half with lid on & it was just right. Next time I will add some onion.

  3. You didn’t mention where to salt/pepper, I’m assuming to taste, and I’m going to try this in my cast iron, I’m assuming it will take a little longer, but will be worth it.

  4. This recipe is delicious!!!! I made it with chicken thighs but going to try & make it with chicken breasts this weekend. The flavor is amazing. I added more potatoes so it took longer in the oven – I just can’t say enough about how great the flavor is & it’s so easy.

    1. I did and it turned out amazing! They were thick so I cut them in Haku long ways. My whole household loved it!

  5. I had to cook this a little longer than 20 mins. I think it has a lot to do with the size and material (color too) of the pan.
    I added carrots and green beans to add color to the dish in the last 5 mins of cooking. They were also delicious!
    Other than that,the dish overall was WONDERFUL!.
    I did turn on the broil just to make the skin on the Thighs to be extra crispy.. IT WAS SOOO GOOD! will be doing this again.

  6. I made this and the chicken was still raw after 20 minutes in the oven. Is that correct? I put my chicken back in the oven for a bit to finish cooking. Smells great but definitely seems to need more time…

      1. I made this recipe, it was delicious! Once Sunday’s leftovers are gone I will be making it again this week!!
