Sheet Pan Garlic Butter Chicken and Veggies: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe

  • Total Time: 39 minute

Ingredients

– 4 chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on for best flavor)
– 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 2 cups broccoli florets
– 1 cup carrots, sliced
– 1 bell pepper, sliced
– 1 zucchini, sliced
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Creating the Sheet Pan Garlic Butter Chicken and Veggies is easy! Just follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel. This will help them get nice and crispy.
3. Make Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper.
4. Season the Chicken: Brush the garlic butter mixture all over the chicken thighs, ensuring they are well coated.
5. Prepare the Veggies: In a large bowl, toss the broccoli, carrots, bell pepper, and zucchini with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
6. Arrange on the Pan: Place the seasoned chicken thighs in the center of a large sheet pan. Surround them with the prepared vegetables.
7. Drizzle Remaining Sauce: Drizzle any remaining garlic butter over the veggies for added flavor.
8. Bake in the Oven: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the veggies are tender.
9. Broil for Extra Crispiness: For extra crispy chicken skin, broil the dish for an additional 2-3 minutes, keeping an eye on it to prevent burning.
10. Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove the pan from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Serve immediately.

These straightforward steps will help you create a delightful meal that is not only fulfilling but also bursting with flavor!
