Why make this recipe

I cannot believe how easy and delicious this chicken sheet pan dinner is to make! This takes less than 10 minutes to get everything ready and into the oven. Once it's in the oven you only need to check it once, to turn the potatoes and add the green beans.

In less than one hour, you have a complete meal. This is perfect for weeknights or Sunday suppers.

      Hi Juls,
      In this recipe, I've used skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs. Legs can be used too.
      Enjoy,
      Kathy 🙂
