(Full disclosure) You’re going to love this oven roasted chicken and vegetables recipe! I don’t know about you, but I’m always on the lookout for healthy chicken and vegetable recipes that don’t require a ton of prep or clean-up. And this sheet pan chicken and vegetables in the oven? It’s just that meal. Only 10 minutes to prep, and then the roasted boneless chicken thighs and vegetables just need to bake, which requires no work from you. Quick and easy chicken dinners are a staple for us, I love how easy it is to cook and turn it into a healthy meal. Chicken thighs are a blend of light and dark meat with tons of flavor, and if you like them as much as I do, you’ll want to also try out my balsamic chicken thighs, creamy garlic chicken thighs, and crispy oven baked chicken thighs. And pairing them with roasted vegetables? Even better. This is just about as easy as it gets! Here is how to roast chicken and vegetables in the oven (quickly!):
TIP: Making sure the chicken and vegetables are in a single layer will ensure that they cook evenly and can roast properly, instead of steaming. Don’t place the veggies on top of the chicken or layer them too much.
TIP: Use a meat thermometer to check that the chicken is done. It’s ready when it reaches 165 degrees. But for extra juicy chicken, you can take it out a couple degrees sooner if you let it rest for 5 minutes afterward, as it will rise a few degrees during this time. Oven Roasted Chicken And Vegetables FAQsCan you roast chicken and vegetables together?As you can see, absolutely! The key is to pair cuts of chicken and types of vegetables that will take a similar amount of time to cook. I did that work for you in this roasted chicken and vegetable recipe. 😉 Can I use different vegetables?Yes, healthy chicken and vegetable recipes like this one are pretty flexible. However, make sure to consider cooking time. I chose veggies that will be done at the same time as the chicken: broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, peppers and onions, shown below. But, feel free to choose other low carb vegetables if you like. TIP: Need some guidance on which vegetables will cook faster or slower? I have some comparison as part of my all-purpose roasted vegetables guide. Can you use chicken breast?Yes, you can. The baking time will take less time, though, so your veggies may brown a bit less. Can you use bone-in chicken thighs?Yes, you can. The baking time will take longer, so cut your veggies into larger pieces to ensure they don’t overcook by the time the chicken thighs are done. Can you use a whole chicken?No, sorry – at least not together with these veggies. The chicken will take too long to roast, so the veggies will be overcooked. If you want to cook a whole chicken, try slow cooker whole chicken instead (I have an oven roasted chicken recipe coming soon), and make separate oven roasted vegetables.

How do I bake chicken breast without it drying out?Cook at a lower heat for longer to keep the chicken breast tender and juicy.
