How to make chicken sheet pan dinner
Preheat your oven to 400F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lay the chicken breast on the prepared pan and rub with the seasonings and half a tablespoon of olive oil.
In a large bowl, combine all the prepped veggies. Drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of oil. Season with salt and pepper and thoroughly toss to coat.
Arrange the vegetables around the chicken in the sheet pan.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink on the inside, and veggies are tender with a slight crunch. Allow the chicken to sit for a few minutes before slicing it.
Garnish with chopped parsley.
Frequently asked questions
What temperature should you bake chicken at?
It all depends on what you are baking. The temperature will vary based on what you are using like thighs or breasts, bone-in or boneless. Ideally, chicken is baked anywhere between 350F-450F for a period of at least 20 minutes and up to 45 minutes. The best way to check if the chicken is done and cooked through is to check the internal temperature until it reaches 165F.
How long do I cook Chicken breast at 350F?
A 4-oz piece of chicken baked at 350°F (177˚C) will need 25-30 minutes.
Do you cover chicken breasts when baking?
No. We prefer not to cover the chicken breast as it bakes. You want it to be browned and have that roasted look as opposed to boiled or steamed chicken. Leave it uncovered.
How do you make chicken not taste dry?
Do not overcook it! Simple as that. If you cook the chicken for too long over the recommended time, the heat will remove the moisture from the chicken thus drying it out.

Notes
- You may use boneless and skinless chicken thighs. Nutritional values and cooking time will vary.
- Use any of your favorite veggies.
- The cooking time of the chicken may be different depending on your oven and how thick and large the chicken breasts are. Consider slicing the chicken breast so it cooks quicker or if you feel the chicken isn’t cooked thoroughly in 25 minutes, give it another 5-10 minutes.
- Best to check the internal temperature of the chicken for doneness. Chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165F.
