Ingredients

  • 1 pound small gold potatoes
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 pounds chicken thighs, skinless and boneless
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 pound mini baby carrots (or regular baby carrots, sliced in half lengthwise)

How To Make sheet pan chicken and potatoes

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Step 2
    If potatoes are large, cut them in half. I use the baby version in the net bags.
  • Step 3
    Add 3 tablespoons of olive oil and balsamic vinegar to a large bowl, and add thighs. Using your hands, coat thighs with oil and vinegar. Place on a sheet pan.
  • Step 4
    Add remaining olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to the same bowl. Toss potatoes, carrots, and mushrooms until coated. If using dried herbs, add them to the bowl also.
  • Step 5
    Place on a sheet pan. Nestle herb sprigs amongst veggies. Add lemon slices amongst thighs.
  • Step 6
    Bake 35 minutes, checking for doneness.
