Notes

  • 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.
