Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken thighs (or breasts) Ensure they are halal.
  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced into half-moons Using fresh produce enhances flavor.
  • 1/4 cup hot honey Adjust amount based on taste.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • to taste Salt and pepper
  • for garnish Fresh parsley or cilantro Optional

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, add the chicken and zucchini. Drizzle with olive oil, hot honey, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until coated.
  3. Arrange the chicken and zucchini evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring chicken pieces don’t overlap.
Cooking
  1. Place the sheet pan in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  2. Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro, and serve hot.

Notes

Substitutions for chicken can include halal turkey or beef, or tofu for a vegetarian option. Always ensure chicken is fully cooked to avoid affecting flavor and safety. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for 3-4 days or frozen for up to 3 months, and reheated for texture restoration.
