Sheet Pan Chicken and Potatoes Tips
- Marinate the chicken for few hours or overnight, the meat will be more seasoned, however if you don’t have time for marinating, 30 minutes can be enough too, discard leftover marinate.
- You can use other baking pan, but sheet pan is shallow and allows browning veggies and chicken because of the airflow.
- Also, you definitely need at least 17′ x 12′ baking sheet so you will fit all ingredients nicely.
- 50 – 60 minutes should be enough for baking, but make sure chicken is cooked through, each oven bakes differently.
- If you would like to make this sheet pan chicken for meal prep use glass containers to store your food, these 8 Pack Glass Food Containers are good, also I like these Pyrex Food Containers.
Chicken Dinner Faq’s
What temperature should you bake chicken at? You can bake your chicken between 325F – 450F but specifically for this recipe we are using 350F temperature, so veggies and meat will bake nicely without burning quickly.
What pan do you bake chicken in? Sheet pan, large baking pan or any other pan is good, however here we are using large pan, so we can fit carrots, parsnips, potatoes and meat on one pan.
Do you cover baked chicken with aluminum foil? You can if you want, but remember to remove aluminum foil 15 minutes before the end so the veggies and skin on chicken will crisps. For this recipe we are not covering with anything.
