Ingredients

Units Scale

Chicken:

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (divided)

Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 teaspoons water

Pasta and Veggies:

  • 8 ounces penne pasta
  • 1 zucchini, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 red onion, sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Roast the Vegetables: Toss zucchini, bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, and red onion with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and lightly browned.
  3. Cook the Pasta: Cook penne pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  4. Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through.
  5. Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix honey, soy sauce, garlic, and cornstarch slurry. Pour over the chicken and cook until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken.
  6. Combine and Serve: Combine the roasted vegetables and cooked pasta with the honey garlic chicken. Toss gently to combine. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.
