  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme or oregano
  • Salt & black pepper, to taste

🔥 How to Make Sheet Pan Chicken and Veggies

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.


Step 2: Prep the Chicken

In a bowl, toss the chicken breasts with 1 tbsp olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper until well coated.


Step 3: Prep the Veggies

In a separate bowl, toss the chopped vegetables with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, pepper, and any extra seasoning you like (such as Italian herbs or chili flakes).


Step 4: Arrange on Sheet Pan

Spread the veggies evenly around the pan. Nestle the chicken pieces among the vegetables.

✅ For crispier veggies, spread everything in a single layer without overcrowding.


Step 5: Roast

Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

For a golden finish, broil on high for the last 2–3 minutes.


Step 6: Serve & Garnish

Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then slice and serve with roasted veggies. Garnish with lemon juice, parmesan, or chopped herbs if desired.


🧊 Storage & Meal Prep Tips

  • Refrigerate in airtight containers for up to 4 days
  • Reheat in the oven or microwave until warmed through
  • Freeze cooked chicken separately and thaw overnight before reheating

🔁 Customization Ideas

  • Swap chicken for turkey, salmon, or tofu
  • Use seasonal veggies like butternut squash, Brussels sprouts, or asparagus
  • Add baby potatoes or sweet potatoes for a heartier meal
  • Toss with pesto or drizzle with balsamic glaze before serving

✅ Final Thoughts

This sheet pan chicken and vegetable recipe is proof that a delicious dinner doesn’t have to be complicated. It’s packed with flavor, easy to prepare, and perfect for any night of the week. Just chop, season, bake, and enjoy!
