Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet or roasting pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, honey, thyme, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Place them in a large bowl and pour half of the mustard mixture over the chicken, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Set aside.
In another large bowl, combine the potatoes, carrots, and Brussels sprouts. Drizzle the remaining mustard mixture over the vegetables. Toss well to coat evenly.
Spread the vegetables in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Nestle the chicken thighs on top of the vegetables, skin-side up. Sprinkle the paprika over the chicken for added color and flavor.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken skin is golden-brown and crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Stir the vegetables halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes. Serve the chicken and vegetables warm, garnished with additional thyme if desired.
