Method
 

Marinate the Chicken
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper. Ensure the mixture is fragrant and slightly sweet.
  2. Marinate the chicken thighs for at least 30 minutes.
Prepare the Vegetables
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the baby potatoes and peeled carrots on a baking tray, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle lightly with salt.
  2. Roast for about 30-35 minutes until they are tender and golden, ensuring not to overcrowd the tray.
Roast the Chicken
  1. Remove the marinated chicken thighs from the bowl and place them on a separate baking sheet.
  2. Roast for 35-40 minutes until beautifully caramelized and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  3. Baste the chicken halfway through for juiciness.
Prepare Remaining Ingredients
  1. Steam the broccoli until bright green and tender, about 5 minutes.
  2. In a pot, heat the sweet corn until heated through.
  3. Boil the eggs for 8-9 minutes, then peel and halve.
Serve
  1. Arrange the roasted chicken thighs on a platter alongside the potatoes, carrots, broccoli, sweet corn, and halved eggs.
  2. Serve with a light salad or crusty bread; chilled white wine pairs well.
