LEMON HERB CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES SHEET PAN RECIPE

Hope we don't bore you all with these sheet pan meals but they really are so easy and best of all, cleanup is easy as well.  I'm becoming our sheet pan whisperer, ha.  Here's another:


Here are the ingredients, plus some salt and pepper to taste. 


And here the chicken, in this case 4 leg quarters.


Chop the onions, slice the zucchini, put the garlic cloves in whole, along with the cherry tomatoes.  Really at this point you could use any vegetable that you might enjoy.  Cut the lemon in half and thinly slice one half and use the other half for its juice.


Drizzle a little olive oil over the chicken, rub it around and put on salt and pepper to taste.


Whisk together 1/3 cup olive oil with the juice of half a lemon and toss to combine. 


Please all the vegetables evenly on a sheet pan and toss the rosemary thyme pieces (rosemary is from our porch plant) on top of all.  The oven should be preheating to 425 degrees.


Please the four chicken leg quarters on top of the vegetables.  Scatter the lemon slices around the chicken and veggies and place into the oven.  


Roast at 425 degrees for about 30 minutes, rotating at least once during cooking.  Cook until the internal temperature of the chicken is 165 degrees.  By this time the sweet potatoes should be done as well and the other veggies should be getting some nice color.

Take it out, plate it up and enjoy!

Super easy, easy cleanup and it looks pretty nice on the plate as well. 

Enjoy!
