Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a large sheet pan with baking paper.
Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and place on the prepared tray.
Wash and cut the potatoes into bite-sized chunks. Add to the tray.
Slice zucchini into thick rounds. Add with baby carrots (or cut regular carrots into pieces) to the tray.
Drizzle olive oil over everything and toss well to coat.
In a small jug or bowl, mix together soy sauce, honey, mustard, and cornflour. Warm honey slightly if too thick.
Pour the glaze over the chicken and veggies. Bake for 20 minutes in the hot oven.
Turn chicken and stir veggies. Return to the oven for another 15–20 minutes until chicken is cooked through.
(optional): If the sauce is too runny, remove chicken and vegetables. Increase oven temp slightly and bake the sauce alone for 5–10 minutes to thicken. Return chicken and veggies to the tray and toss in the thickened glaze
Enjoy!

Notes
Don’t skip drying the chicken—it helps it roast rather than steam.
Use a large enough pan so everything is in a single layer.
Warm your honey slightly to help it mix smoothly into the glaze.
Chicken drumsticks or pieces – Bone-in chicken pieces stay juicy and are budget-friendly. If you are going to use boneless chicken you may need to Reduce cooking time slightly as boneless pieces cook faster.
Roasting potatoes – Use a floury variety like Agria, Russet, King Edward or Maris Piper.
Zucchini & carrots – Feel free to sub in other roastable veggies like pumpkin, broccoli, capsicum, or red onion.
Soy sauce – Use gluten-free Soy Sauce or Tamari if needed.
Honey – Not suitable for children under 1 year of age. Maple syrup or brown sugar dissolved in a little hot water can be used as a substitute.
