From the Test Kitchen

For an elevated side to seared chicken topped with a honey-mustard sauce, you'll score roasted squash by simply cutting diagonal slits 1/4 inch deep, which allows the garlic and herb butter we're lathering on top to soak in to every bite. A second side of subtly spicy brussels sprouts brings the rest of the meal together.

Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce
1 Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce

Remove the butter from the refrigerator to soften. Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut off and discard the ends of the squash. Halve lengthwise; using a spoon, scoop out and discard the pulp and seeds. Cut off and discard the stem ends of the brussels sprouts; halve lengthwise. Place in a bowl; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and as much of the red pepper flakes as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be. Stir to coat. In a bowl, combine the honey, mayonnaise, and half the mustard (you will have extra).

Roast the squash & brussels sprouts

Line a sheet pan with foil. Transfer the halved squash to one side the foil, cut side up. Drizzle with olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Arrange cut side down on one side of the sheet pan. Roast 7 minutes. Leaving the oven on, remove from the oven. Add the seasoned brussels sprouts to the other side of the sheet pan. Return to the oven and roast 14 to 16 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork. Remove from the oven.

Meanwhile, pat the chicken dry with paper towels; season on both sides with salt, pepper, and enough of the spice blend to coat (you may have extra). In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned chicken. Cook 6 to 9 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through.* Transfer to a cutting board.

*The USDA recommends a minimum safe cooking temperature of 165°F for chicken.
