## 🔥 How to Make It
1. **Preheat oven** to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
2. **Prepare the glaze:** In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, olive oil, garlic, and ginger.
3. **Marinate the chicken:** Place chicken legs in a large bowl or zip-top bag and pour half the glaze over them. Let sit for at least 15 minutes (or up to 4 hours in the fridge for deeper flavor).
4. **Prep the veggies:** Toss the chopped vegetables in olive oil, salt, pepper, and herbs. Spread them evenly on one side of the baking sheet.
5. **Bake it all together:** Place the marinated chicken legs on the other half of the pan. Bake for 35–45 minutes, turning the chicken and stirring veggies halfway through. Brush remaining glaze over the chicken during the last 10 minutes.
6. **Serve hot**, with rice, couscous, or crusty bread on the side to soak up all that delicious glaze.
