Simple Chicken and Vegetable Sheet Pan Dinner
Description
The recipe requires red potatoes halved or quartered, chicken thighs with skin and bone, and asparagus spears. These ingredients are coated in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, dried Italian seasoning, and salt. Potatoes and chicken roast first for 15 minutes, then asparagus is added for another 15 minutes, ensuring even cooking and perfectly roasted vegetables and meat.
The final dish presents a combination of crispy-skinned chicken thighs, tender but firm potatoes, and slightly crisp asparagus with bright lemon and herb notes. The lemon juice adds freshness, while the Italian seasoning imparts familiar herb flavors. It is suitable for a straightforward dinner requiring minimal preparation.
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- lemon juice juice from half a lemon
- 1/2 Tbsp Italian seasoning dried
- 1 tsp salt
- 24 oz red potatoes medium ones halved and large ones quartered, petite
- 4 chicken thighs seasoned with salt and pepper, bone-in, skin-on
- 1 asparagus bunch
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Whisk the olive oil, lemon, Italian seasoning, and salt together in a small bowl.
- Line a baking sheet with tin foil. Spread the potatoes in an even layer. Pour half of the olive oil mixture over the top. Toss the potatoes to coat them evenly and spread them in an even layer. Place the chicken thighs on the baking sheet. Roast the potatoes and chicken for 15 minutes.
- Toss the asparagus in the remaining olive oil mixture. Add the asparagus to the baking sheet after the chicken and potatoes have roasted for 15 minutes. Roast it all another 15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Optional: Squeeze a 1/2 lemon over the top of the chicken and veggies before serving.
