Lemon & Ginger Honey Chicken Traybake

Bright, colourful and wonderfully easy to prepare, this Lemon & Ginger Honey Chicken Traybake is just the thing for a fuss-free midweek dinner. Juicy chicken thighs and colourful vegetables are roasted together in a zingy Just Bee Honey glaze, giving you plenty of flavour with very little washing up.

You can use any of our honeys in this recipe, but we especially recommend Lemon & Ginger Immunity Honey. Its zesty lemon flavour and warming hint of ginger work beautifully with the savoury chicken and vegetables, creating a delicious balance of sweet, citrusy and savoury flavours.

Simply pop everything into one tray and let the oven do the hard work!

Ingredients

• 4 chicken thighs
• 2 tablespoons Just Bee Honey (we recommend Lemon & Ginger Immunity Honey for its zingy citrus and ginger flavour)
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 lemon
• 1 red pepper, roughly chopped
• 1 yellow pepper, roughly chopped
• 1 courgette, sliced
• 1 red onion, cut into wedges
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper

To serve (optional):

• Fluffy rice
• Fresh green salad
• Lemon wedges

Method

1. Preheat the Oven:
   Heat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Arrange the chicken thighs and prepared vegetables in a large roasting tray.
2. Make the Honey Glaze:
   In a small bowl, mix together the Just Bee Honey, soy sauce and juice of half the lemon until well combined.
3. Coat the Chicken & Vegetables:
   Drizzle the olive oil and honey glaze over the chicken and vegetables. Season lightly with salt and pepper, then toss everything together until evenly coated. Slice the remaining lemon and tuck the slices around the tray.
4. Roast Until Golden:
   Roast for 35–40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and beautifully golden and the vegetables are tender and lightly caramelised.
5. Serve and Enjoy:
   Spoon over some of those lovely sticky juices from the roasting tray before serving. Enjoy with fluffy rice or a crisp green salad for an easy and satisfying midweek meal.

Top Tip

For even more flavour, mix the chicken with the honey glaze and leave it to marinate in the fridge for an hour or two before cooking.

This Lemon & Ginger Honey Chicken Traybake is colourful, comforting and full of fresh flavour. The citrusy zing and gentle warmth of Lemon & Ginger Immunity Honey make the glaze deliciously sticky while bringing all those roasted flavours together.

Zingy, golden and wonderfully simple, the perfect midweek dinner. 🍋🍯✨
