- Mix the sauce: In a separate bowl, whisk together honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- Combine ingredients: Pour the honey garlic sauce over the chicken and vegetables, making sure everything is coated.

Notes
Honey adds sweetness; maple syrup is a great gluten-free alternative. Fresh minced garlic enhances flavor. Tamari can be used for a gluten-free soy sauce option.
