Sheet Pan BBQ Chicken and Roasted Potatoes

by Jamie

Have you noticed the abundance of sheet pan dinners floating around the online food world lately? Boy, I have. They’ve definitely caught my interest and I’ve been dying to try my hand at making one or two or twenty. I love the idea of making an entire meal, complete with protein and veggies all on one (or two, depending on the size of your family) sheet pans. So convenient, not a lot of fuss and super easy on the clean up.

This Sheet Pan BBQ Chicken and Potatoes turned out super great. I used not only potatoes, but yams and baby carrots as well. I love the pretty orange color and they give the dish hint of roasted sweetness, which was wonderful! The chicken is super moist and slightly sticky with the addition of bbq sauce that gets added during the last few minutes of baking. My family loved it, I loved it.

PS…it’s pretty darn healthy, too. If you are into that kind of thing.

Hope some of you get a chance to try it!

Let me show you how to make it happen!

IMG_0857_edited-1

1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
2. Wash 3 medium-sized Yukon gold potatoes. Wash and peel 3 medium-sized yams.

IMG_0859_edited-1

3. Chop them into chunks (about 2 inches in size). Make sure the pieces are relatively similar in size so they cook evenly.
4. Add the potatoes, yams and 2 cups mini carrots to a large bowl. Drizzle them with 3 Tb olive oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle them with 1/2 tsp thyme, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp seasoned salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Toss to coat.

5. Spray 2 large cookie sheets with cooking spray and pour the veggies over 2/3 of each pan.  Leave about 1/3 of each pan uncovered.
6. Pop the pans in the oven to bake for 15 minutes.

7. While the veggies cook, grab 2 1/2 pounds chicken tenders. Take a sharp pair of kitchen scissors and snip the white tendon (found in the thickest portion of the chicken) out. The tendons are, of course, edible…but super hard to chew and pretty disgusting, truly. 🙂 Best to cut the buggers out.

8. Place the chicken tenders in the same bowl you used to toss the veggies. Drizzle the chicken with 1 Tb olive oil and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp thyme, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika and 1/2 tsp seasoned salt. Toss to combine.

9. Remove the pans from the oven and carefully lay the chicken out over the empty spaces on each pan. Return the pans to the oven and bake for 30 more minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink.
10. Brush Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ Sauce over the top of each chicken tender and return the pans to the oven. Cook 5 additional minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and hot.

11. Chop 1 Tb of cilantro and 2 Tb green onions. Sprinkle them over the top of the chicken and potatoes. Sprinkle additional salt and pepper over the veggies according to your own personal taste and liking.

Enjoy!

I’ve tried this and you wonder why we haven’t been doing it that way all our life, it’s amazingly simple, fast and healthy. Gone are the days when you either boiled the life out of the veg or flooded them in fat to cook.Never again will I cook the ‘old way’
As always Jamie, great article. Thank you.

I made this tonight, and it’s excellent! Thank you for the awesome recipe 🙂
As a side note, I love your tip about using kitchen shears to cut off the white tendon from the tenders. For whatever reason I have never used shears very much, and I was amazed at how much easier it was to use them rather than a knife for that!

This turned out great, wife loved both the chicken and the veg. I used a honey BBQ from Stonewall Kitchen in Maine for half the tenders and a Hickory for the rest- both turned out great!

Wow. This is awesome. I will try this out soon for my friends and husband to “taste”. Can I add more chili to make it spicy? Cannot wait to try this out.

Hi Jaime –
I enjoy your recipes and use them often. Great job! Is it possible for you to not use the smiley face in your comments? Every time I print it takes up 3/4 of the page. I know that sounds lame but it makes for a lot of wasted color and paper.
