Lemon Garlic Chicken

Print Recipe

A delightful sheet pan meal featuring tender chicken, vibrant broccoli, and crispy potatoes, all infused with zesty lemon and fragrant garlic.

Ingredients

  • Chicken thighs or breasts (boneless)
  • Baby potatoes (or your favorite type)
  • Fresh broccoli florets
  • Olive oil
  • Fresh lemon juice
  • Garlic cloves
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Fresh herbs (like rosemary or thyme, optional)

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken and ensure it’s well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight in the fridge for more flavor).
  2. Prep the Veggies: While the chicken marinates, wash and cut the baby potatoes in half. If using other veggies, prepare them similarly.
  3. Combine on the Sheet Pan: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). On a large sheet pan, spread the marinated chicken, halved potatoes, and broccoli in an even layer. Drizzle with a little more olive oil if desired and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and herbs.
  4. Roast to Perfection: Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are golden and crispy. Give it a gentle toss halfway through to ensure even roasting.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving to redistribute the juices in the chicken.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. For longer storage, freeze for up to 3 months.
