Makes 4 servings

Prep time: 15 minutes

Cook time: 30 minutes

Ingredients Needed

Chicken – I used tenderloins. The tenderloins will cook up quickly as they are thinner cut.

Potatoes – Reach for a mini potato. Red potatoes work great in this sheet pan recipe.

Green Beans – Frozen green beans hold up the best for this recipe. You will find canned green beans can become too soggy.

Oil – A little oil to help prevent sticking.

Seasoning – I used Mrs. Dash’s chicken seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste.

Pro Tip: If you want to add a little extra kick to your muffins, try adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to the dry mix. It will give your muffins a subtle and spicy flavor.

Supplies Needed

  • Sheet Pan
  • Parchment paper
  • Pastry brush
  • Medium-sized pot
  • Sharp kitchen knife
  • Potato peeler

Variations

  • Use any type of boneless chicken. Just cut the chicken into smaller pieces.
  • Swap out the vegetables. Asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, and more all work great for this recipe.
  • If you don’t have Mrs. Dash you can use any spices you want to flavor the dish. Garlic, onion powder, season salt, etc. all are great flavor pairings.

How to Make

Preheat the Oven

Before you begin prepping your ingredients, make sure to preheat your oven to the temperature specified in the recipe. This will ensure that your dish is cooked evenly and thoroughly.

Prep Your Baking Dish

Once your oven is preheated, you’ll need to prepare the sheet pan that you’ll be using for your dish. Spray the sheet pan with cooking spray or butter or line it with parchment paper if desired. This will help prevent sticking and make cleanup easier later on.

Cook Potatoes on the Stovetop

The next step is to cook the potatoes on the stovetop to soften them up a bit before they go into the oven. Peel and dice them into cubes, then place them in a pot of boiling water over medium heat until they are tender but not mushy. Once done, drain off any excess liquid and set aside.

Assemble Ingredients

Now it’s time to assemble all of your ingredients on the sheet pan. Place chicken breasts in first, then add green beans and potatoes around them.

Brush all of the ingredients with oil or melted butter and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or any other desired spices or herbs.

Bake and Serve

Once everything is assembled, bake as directed in your recipe for about 30 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F). Once done cooking, let cool slightly before serving.

Tips for Success

  • Make sure all the chicken is even in size. Otherwise, it will not bake up evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is fully cooked. The internal temperature needs to reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • When you prep the potatoes make sure they are tender from boiling so that they can roast quicker in the oven.
  • You can use fresh green beans if you want just make sure to spread them in a single layer on the sheet pan.
  • Don’t overlap ingredients on a sheet pan or overstuff as it will slow down the cooking process.

Storing

Store any leftovers you don’t plan to eat right away in the fridge in a sealed container. The chicken and vegetables can last for 3-4 days in the fridge.

Then reheat as you wish. You will find the chicken can dry out when you go to reheat it.

You can also freeze leftovers if you want. Place in a freezer container and then freeze for 2-3 months. Then thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat as you would like.

How do I prevent the chicken from drying out?

Adding the oil on top of the chicken is going to help create a seal on the chicken and keep it from drying out as quickly. But also make sure to not overbake the chicken or that will cause the chicken to dry out.

How do I avoid the vegetables from becoming mushy?

Make sure you cut your potatoes into even bite-size pieces. Then spread them out in a single layer. Repeat the same with the green beans. Having similar-sized veggies helps to cook it up more evenly.
