# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • The cleanup is so minimal youll actually look forward to doing dishes
  • That honey garlic glaze gets sticky and caramelized in the oven and its honestly magical
02 -
  • Dont crowd the pan or things will steam instead of roast, use two pans if needed
  • The sauce thickens a lot in the oven, so dont worry if it looks thin going in
03 -
  • Toss the vegetables halfway through cooking so nothing burns on the bottom
  • Let the chicken marinate for at least 10 minutes if you have time, it makes a difference
