Dijon-Herb Roasted Vegetables and Chicken Thighs

While I love a good roast dinner, I’m not a big fan of the endless pots and pans that can come along with it. Thankfully this healthy and easy chicken dinner can all be done in one pan! The vegetables and chicken get nice and golden, while they roast in a delicious Dijon-herb mixture.

I used a combination of my favourite root vegetables – potatoes, carrots, parsnips, onions and sweet potatoes. They all lend themselves well to being roasted and give a nice sweet flavour combination with the Dijon mustard.
