What you need to make this easy chicken & veggie sheet pan dinner + substitutions:
Chicken thighs- We used boneless chicken things but bone-in would have been preferred for us if we had them. Chicken breasts work as well if you don’t have thighs. But make sure they are not too thick otherwise they will take longer to cook.
Bell peppers- Peppers are a great addition to this meal. Any color works great!
Yellow onions- Another great addition of flavor to this dish. We always yellow onions because they are great for cooking and release a sweetness. White onions could be used as well.
Baby potatoes– A great addition! Hearty and delicious.
Zucchini- Zucchini adds a mild, slightly sweet flavor and tender texture to this sheet pan meal—perfectly roasted and kid-approved; you can easily substitute it with yellow squash or chopped asparagus for a similar result.
Olive oil- Olive oil adds richness and helps the chicken and veggies roast; if needed, substitute with avocado oil or melted butter for a similar result.
Sea salt- We use Redmond sea salt, it’s our favorite and we use it in everything! You can use the code daddioskitchen for 15% off. We get the big big bag! 🙂
Black pepper- Pepper is a must in most cooking! A little goes a long way.
Garlic powder- Garlic powder adds a savory flavor that blends easily with other spices; if you’re out, substitute with minced fresh garlic or onion powder for a comparable punch.
Paprika- Paprika brings a warm, smoky-sweet depth to the dish without heat; if you’re out, try chili powder for a spicier kick.
Dried oregano- Adds a nice taste and touch to this meal!
