Easy One-Pan Chicken & Veggies
Discover the ultimate weeknight convenience with this flavorful one-pan recipe. Juicy bone-in chicken breasts roast to perfection alongside a colorful medley of tender potatoes, carrots, Brussels sprouts, zucchini, onions, and bell peppers, all bathed in herbs and olive oil. It's a wholesome, delicious meal with minimal cleanup.
Ingredients
- 4 large bone-in skin-on chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp olive oil divided
- 1 tsp paprika
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp dried thyme
- 0.5 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1.5 lb baby potatoes halved or quartered
- 3 medium carrots peeled and chopped
- 1 lb Brussels sprouts halved
- 1 medium red onion cut into wedges
- 1 medium red bell pepper seeded and chopped
- 1 medium zucchini chopped (add halfway through cooking)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a small bowl, combine 1 tbsp olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.
- In a large bowl, toss the potatoes, carrots, Brussels sprouts, red onion, and red bell pepper with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper until well coated.
- Arrange the seasoned vegetables on one side of the prepared baking sheet. Place the chicken breasts on the other side, ensuring they are in a single layer and not overcrowded.
- Roast for 25 minutes. Then, remove the baking sheet from the oven, add the chopped zucchini to the vegetables, and gently toss. Return to the oven and continue to roast for another 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F/74°C) and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Serve immediately. Enjoy your effortless and delicious one-pan meal!
Notes
Feel free to swap vegetables based on what's in season or your preference. Broccoli, sweet potatoes, or asparagus would also work well. Ensure vegetables are cut to similar sizes for even cooking. For extra crispiness, broil for the last few minutes. Adjust cooking time for boneless chicken breasts (typically 25-30 minutes).
