Yummy, quick, easy, healthy deliciousness comin’ at ya!
Who’s ready for some Sheet Pan Greek Chicken?!
I don’t know about you, but sheet pan dinners are my J.A.M.
Why?
Less dishes.
‘Nough said.
Throw this sheet pan greek chicken together before work (it seriously takes just a few minutes of prep), dump everything out onto a sheet pan when you get home, cook for 15-ish minutes, and
BAM!
That’s dinner.
I love love LOVE recipes like this, because I ALWAYS have the ingredients on hand.
If you read my chopped chickpea greek salad post, you know that I was really lacking in creativity the other day.
Because of that, I decided to take a break from creating recipes for the blog and just cook dinner for Trevor and I. I almost never do that, so it was actually really refreshing!
Because I wasn’t testing anything for the blog, I literally just took what I had in my fridge and pantry and threw it all together.
Ironically, the two recipes I ended up making (this and the chickpea salad), are now on the blog, because they ended up so darn delicious. Ha!
Plus, I figured if I had all the ingredients on hand, maybe you guys do, too. Then we can all eat this yummy, quick, easy, healthy deliciousness and be happy together. 🙂
First up, the marinade.
Whisk together: olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic powder, dried oregano, dried basil, and salt. Set aside.
Next up, the chicken and veggies.
Cube some chicken. Done!
Prep the veggies into chunks: red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion. You could use other veggies that you have on hand, but I really liked this combination!
Let everything marinate together while you’re at work and like I said, dump everything onto a sheet pan when you get home and before you know it dinner is served!
This sheet pan greek chicken requires minimal prep AND minimal clean up and what’s even better is that it’s super healthy AND tastes SO good.
I LOVE how tender the chicken gets and you can’t beat the tangy brightness from the red wine vinegar.
If you want, I highly recommend topping the warm chicken with my chilled chopped chickpea greek salad!
Easy. One Sheet. Healthy. Yummy.
This sheet pan greek chicken will most definitely be on my regular dinner rotation.
