Tender chicken breast pieces are baked with veggies and then broiled with a sprinkle of crispy parmesan cheese.
Ingredients and Variations
Chicken: Chicken breasts, chicken thighs, or even chicken drumsticks can be used in a sheet pan dinner. For extra flavor toss in some slices of summer sausage too. Vegetables: Potatoes, peas, and fresh or frozen mixed veggies are perfect in a sheet pan dinner. Mushrooms, halved Brussels sprouts, corn cobs cut into bite-size pieces, thick coins of zucchini, asparagus, and chunks of red onion and red bell peppers will all caramelize nicely and bring on new flavors. Seasoning: Homemade seasoned salt and Italian seasoning are quick and easy to make and the ingredients can be adjusted to suit your preference. Or toss chicken and veggies in a zesty Adobo blend and serve with warm tortillas and wedges of lime. Variations: This recipe is perfect for using what you’ve got! Mix up the proteins and use salmon or shrimp for an old-fashioned shrimp boil, or use leftover beef or pork.
How to Make a Sheet Pan Dinner
Holly’s Best Tips and Tricks
Prep the pan with parchment paper for faster cleanup. Don’t crowd the pan. If necessary, use two sheet pans Chop potatoes, carrots, and squash into uniform sizes so they cook evenly. Starchy veggies like potatoes, squash, and carrots need to be cooked a little first, but you can prep the rest of the dish ahead. Keep leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
