13 - 2 cloves garlic, minced

# Directions:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with oil.
02 - In a small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, honey, whole grain mustard, minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, and smoked paprika until well combined.
03 - Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Place in a large bowl and toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add half the honey mustard glaze and toss to coat evenly.

05 - Nestle the glazed chicken thighs among the vegetables on the sheet pan, spacing them evenly.
06 - Roast in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and vegetables are tender and caramelized.
