I love easy one-pan dinners and this honey soy mustard chicken tray bake is just that!
The potatoes and chicken cook together in one tray, add a salad or some green veggies and your dinner is ready.
How to make a honey soy mustard chicken tray bake
You only need 5 ingredients to create this honey soy mustard chicken tray bake, and wouldn't you know it, four of them are listed right there in the recipe title. The other final ingredient is potatoes.
Essentially you combine all ingredients in a tray and bake, it really is that simple.
For this recipe, you need a good floury roasting style potato. Here in New Zealand my favourite potato to use for this type of recipe is an Agria.
But obviously, potato varieties vary from country to country. From what I can tell the potato varieties listed below would also be suitable

Ingredients
- 6-8 chicken drumsticks or chicken pieces
- 3-4 medium potatoes roasting variety
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon wholegrain mustard
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius (approx 400 f)
- Prepare a large roasting or baking tray by lining with baking paper
- Pat the chicken drumsticks or pieces dry with paper towel, place in the tray
- Wash the potatoes, I don't peel them, cut into bite size pieces, add to the tray with the chicken
- Add the oil to the chicken and potatoes and make sure they are evenly covered with oil, I use my hands
- In a small bowl or measuring jug mix together the soy sauce, honey and mustard. If your honey is not liquid you may need to warm it so that it mixes more easily
- Pour the honey soy mix over the chicken and potatoes
- Bake at 200 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes, turn the chicken and potatoes and bake for a further 15-20 minutes depending on the size of your chicken pieces.
- At this point, the tray bake should be ready and the source thickened/become a little yummy and sticky, sometimes this is not the case if the chicken has released a lot of liquid during cooking. If your sauce is still runny, remove the chicken and potatoes from the tray and set aside. Increase the heat on the oven a little and continue cooking the sauce for another 5 or so minutes. Once thickened and yummy looking pour this over your chicken and potatoes
- Serve with a salad or steamed green vegetables

Notes

- As this recipe contains honey it is not suitable for children under one year of age
- To make this recipe gluten free you will need to select a gluten-free soy sauce such as Tamari
