Roasted Chicken and Vegetables Sheet Pan Supper

April 20, 2020

Roasted chicken and vegetables sheet pan supper cooks together on one pan for a super easy dinner with minimal cleanup. Meals like this are a lifesaver during hectic evenings when you need to get dinner on the table without a lot of effort.Plus, one pan meals are a great way to use up what you already have.

Also known as “clean out the fridge dinners” around here. Onions, potatoes and tomatoes are usually on hand, so you are halfway there. If you have a bell pepper sitting in the fridge, or a few carrots that are starting to look like they’ve seen better days, don’t waste them.

All of those miscellaneous bits of veggies can be chopped up and used for this simple pan roasted chicken and vegetables.

If you don’t eat meat, or if it’s a “meatless Monday”, you’re done. Otherwise, a couple of chicken breasts thrown on with the veggies and some seasoning makes this a slam dunk in record time.
