Equipment

  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 Large Baking Sheet
  • Aluminum Foil Optional
  • 1 Spatula

Ingredients

  • 2 lb Chicken Leg Quarters
  • 2 tbsp Lemon Juice Optional
  • 3 tbsp Oil of Choice
  • ½ Large Onion
  • 1 lb Baby Carrots
  • 1 Large Zucchini
  • 2 Sweet Potatoes Or potato of choice
  • 1 bag Frozen Broccoli
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • Salt and Pepper To taste
  • 1 tsp Thyme

Instructions

  • Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400℉. For easy cleanup, line a large, rimmed baking sheet with foil. 
  • Place the sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss to coat and then spread into a single layer on the baking sheet. Keep the bowl handy. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are just beginning to soften on the outsides but are still too firm to eat.
  • Meanwhile, in the bowl that you used previously for the sweet potatoes, place the chicken, broccoli, zucchini, and onion. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil. Add the lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
  • Transfer the chicken and vegetable mixture to the sheet pan with the sweet potatoes, using a spatula to spread everything into a fairly even layer and stirring it a bit if needed.
  • Return to the sheet pan to the oven and bake for 15 to 20 additional minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the middle and the vegetables are tender but not mushy. (They won’t be browned and caramelized but will be delicious to eat.) Serve hot.
