Ingredients and Substitution

  • Vegetables. In this recipe, I use sweet potato, broccoli, cherry tomatoes, zucchini, and red bell pepper. You can easily substitute them with any other vegetables you love or have on hands.
  • Chicken. Boneless skinless chicken breast will work the best in the meal. Just dice it in 1-inch cubes, so it will cook at the same time as the vegetables.
  • Seasoning. I love to use my classic blend of seasonings for the best flavor and aroma, which includes onion powder, garlic powder, dried oregano, and dried thyme.
Separate ingredients to make sheet pan chicken and veggies.

How to make it

Preheat the oven to 400F.

Pat dry chicken breasts and dice into 1-inch cubes. Dice sweet potatoes, broccoli, zucchini, and red bell pepper in similar size.

Place on a large baking sheet cherry tomatoes, diced chicken, sweet potatoes, broccoli, zucchini, and red bell pepper.

Sprinkle over 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, ¾ tsp dried oregano, ¾ tsp dried thyme, and drizzle over 3 tbsp olive oil. Then toss everything to evenly coat and spread in a single layer.

Transfer to a preheated oven and bake at 400F for about 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. Stir once halfway through.

Top everything with some freshly grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley, and it’s ready to serve.

Tips for best results

  • Cut the veggies in uniform pieces. To ensure that the veggies cook evenly, you need to cut them in similar size pieces.
  • Use the right pan. Make sure to use a large, rimmed baking sheet. That will allow to spread chicken and veggies in a single layer for even cooking.
  • Use a meat thermometer. To make sure the chicken is cooked through and safe to eat, you can use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature of the meat should read at least 165F.

How to serve

Frequently Asked Questions

How to store?

You can refrigerate it in an air-tight container for up to 4 days.

What other vegetables can I use for this recipe?

You can add pretty much any veggies you like or have on hand, like cauliflower, onions, green beans, asparagus, turnip, etc.

Can I use boneless skinless chicken thighs instead of breasts?

Yes, in this recipe you can substitute diced chicken breasts with boneless skinless chicken thighs. The cooking time will be the same, but you don’t have to dice chicken thighs, just spread it in a single layer.

Can I marinate chicken before cooking it?

Yes, marinating the meat before cooking will provide even more flavor. You can use my marinade from BBQ Boneless Chicken Thighs or Oven Baked Chicken Legs.

Can I use frozen vegetables?

I would not recommend using frozen vegetables in this recipe. Most likely, they will come out soggy and will be overcooked before other veggies and meat are cooked through.

Can I use parchment paper or aluminum foil on the baking sheet?

Yes. For easier clean up, you can line up the sheet pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
