A recipe that requires little effort but delivers a lot of flavor is always good to have in your repertoire and if other dishes to pair with the recipe can be cooked in the oven at the same time what could be better? For the best flavor, using bone-in chicken pieces is recommended.

12 oz grape or cherry tomatoes, cut in half
3 cloves garlic, smashed and coarsely chopped
8 bone-in assorted chicken pieces (breasts should be cut in half)
1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1” pieces
1lb mushrooms, cut into ½” thick slices
1 + 2 tbsp olive oil (divided use)
2 tbsp Balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped

Cracked pepper to taste
2 tbsp honey
PREPARATION

Arrange the chicken pieces over the vegetables skin side down to coat with the oil mixture then turn them over. Season the chicken with the remaining salt and some more ground pepper then spread the honey over the chicken.
