Roasted Sheet Pan Chicken Thighs
We all want a delicious, easy, inexpensive meal to feed our family on weeknights. These Roasted Sheet Pan Chicken Thighs are all that and more.
I have found a few times chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on, on sale at a really low price for a big huge package. I then divide them up and freeze into thirds or fourths.Â
A few simple ingredients make this scrumptious dinner in no time. I love that it is a complete meal on a sheet, easy veggies and chicken and so does my family. Leaving the skin-on and bone-in while cooking adds amazing flavor to this simple chicken dinner.Â
The chicken roasts up juicy along with the veggies being sweet and tender. There is such little clean up also with this recipe. If you want to line the pan with foil, then there is even less.
I have made this recipe many times now and have added other veggies I have on hand like squash, parsnips, turnip, sweet potatoes, Brussel sprouts etc.Â
You will fall in love with this recipe and make it again and again. Sure doesn’t taste like you just added a bunch of ingredients to a tray and popped it in the oven.
It tastes like you slaved over it. The chicken juices escape to add flavor to the veggies. Cooking sheet pan dinners are easy and delicious!!Â
The veggies then brown and caramelize giving even more flavor to the meal. Using little potatoes couldn’t be easier too, no need to peel, cut or even wash, just pop them onto the tray. The meal prep. time is about 10 minutes maximum!!
We have lots of other great chicken recipes too like Lemon Garlic Sauvignon Blanc Braised Chicken or our very popular Healthy Slow Cooker Butter Chicken.Â

Your chicken looks good enough to eat right off the page. I love cooking poultry with thyme and can almost smell your appetizing looking dish now.

Dawn Lopez says
What a brilliant idea to cook it all on a sheet pan! I love how simple this looks to make. I bet it tastes amazing too. 🙂
Melissa @thestatenislandfamily.com says

This sounds good and the perfect dinner my teen daughter could make. She’s always looking for dinners to cook and she LOVES chicken!
Hali @daytodayMOMents says
Love the recipe, this looks perfect. Think I’ll make some oven roast chicken thighs for dinner. 🙂
Phil Campbell says
Would this work with boneless, skinless thighs as well?
Tara Noland says
Sure it would Phil but just wouldn’t be quite as delicious and more expensive. But, in saying that, I almost always use boneless, skinless thighs.
Chris says
I saw this was a weight watcher meal. Do you have the point value or the nutrition facts to share?
Thanks
Tara Noland says
I am sorry no I don’t, I am sure Weight Watchers could help you with that!
Dinah Brock says
since there is a no. 1 in directions….is there a number 2, or more? I was looking for what came next>>>
Tara Noland says
I guess all that is missing is serve and eat. Nothing more, very simple recipe.
Jodie says
If I were to use one bone in chicken breast and three bone in thighs, would I then cook it for the same amount of time?
Jodie says
Sorry I thought this recipe was for chicken legs, just realized they are thighs.
Tara Noland says
The small thighs do cook much faster than a chicken breast. Just adjust your time and check temperatures to make sure they are done. Chicken is cooked at 165F.
Jodie says
I made this and I wanna tell you it was very good. I let it bake at 425 degrees for 35 minutes and it came out perfect. I even made gravy with the drippings. My husband loved it. Thank you for this recipe.
Tara Noland says
So glad you enjoyed it, thank you so much for telling me. Such an easy dinner, we love to make this!
Nancy says
I made this last night with chicken legs, it smelled so good roasting. Next time I will make 2 more potatoes and not chop the carrots so small, mine were a bit overdone. Very good dinner for a cold, snowy night here in North Carolina. Thanks…
Tara Noland says
So glad you enjoyed it, I love how easy it is! Stay warm!
Barb says
Fantastic! You made a “Sheet Pan” believer out of me. Thank you!
Tara Noland says
Awesome to hear!! Enjoy Barb!!
Maria says
My family loved this. It’s was so easy. SO tasty! Thanks for a keeper recipe!
Tara Noland says
Thank you, thank you! So glad you were happy with it. We just had it again over the holidays, so easy!!
Loretta says
I made this tonight and everyone loved it. I omitted the potatoes and just added more veggies. Served w a quick side of rice. Delicious way to use up veggies! Thank you for sharing this recipe!
Tara Noland says
So glad you enjoyed it, we just love how simple it is yet so delicious too!
