Check out how to Make Sheet Pan Chicken, Brussel Sprouts and Potatoes with these simple step-by-step instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking sheet with foil or spray it with nonstick cooking spray. Set it aside.
  2. In a small bowl mix together the seasonings until blended. Set aside.
  3. Wash and quarter your red potatoes or cut them into 1-inch cubes. Wash the brussel sprouts and trim the ends off. If needed slice them in half, small ones can remain whole.

  5. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add 1 tablespoon minced garlic and 2 teaspoons of the seasoning mixture. Toss to combine. Scatter them around on the pan and make space for your chicken thighs.

  7. Brush the tops of the thighs with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle the remaining seasoning mixture over the thighs.
  8. Bake in your oven for 30-35 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.
  9. Remove from oven and let rest 5 minutes before serving.

Chicken. You can swap out the chicken thighs for drumsticks and the bake time will not change. Swapping out the chicken for white meat like chicken breasts will make the bake time vary depending on the size of the breasts.

Potatoes. For a nice "fall" flavor combination swap out the potatoes for sweet potatoes. A combination of chicken thighs, brussel sprouts, sweet potatoes, and spices sound like a great idea for adding more color to your plate.

Seasoning. If you have a favorite seasoning salt or blend, you can use that in place of the homemade seasoning mix that we're using.

🍴 Recipe Tips

I recommend lining your baking sheet with foil as it will help to keep the cleanup mess to a nice minimum.

Do not cut the potatoes too large or else they may not cook thoroughly. You want all of the pieces to be the same size so that they can cook evenly and finish at the same time.

If using red potatoes or Yukon golden potatoes, you do not need to peel the potatoes before cutting, however, I do recommend removing peels on Russet potatoes or sweet potatoes because their skin is thicker.

Should brussel sprouts be soaked before roasting?

Do you need to soak brussel sprouts before cooking? You don't need to, but it might help to soak them first. Do so for 20 minutes if you have time, prior to trimming them. If not, make sure you at least rinse them before you prep them for roasting.

Should you blanch brussel sprouts before roasting?

Do you cover chicken breast when roasting?

Baking chicken at home (whether as pieces or a whole bird) is really as easy as prep and bake. You never have to worry about covering chicken while baking, as it's fine to bake it uncovered. Once your chicken is in the oven, it's hands-free until you need to check the temperature.
