Sheet Pan Citrus and Sage Chicken with Roasted Broccoli and Potatoes is a delicious and easy one-pan meal that’s perfect for a family dinner. Here’s a recipe for you:
Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Zest and juice of 1 lemon
- Zest and juice of 1 orange
- 1 tablespoon fresh sage leaves, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried sage)
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Vegetables:
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 cups baby potatoes, halved or quartered depending on size
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon zest, orange zest, lemon juice, orange juice, chopped sage leaves, salt, and pepper. This will be your marinade.
- Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish, and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to a few hours for better flavor.
- While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Toss the broccoli florets and baby potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator and place it on the baking sheet with the vegetables. Pour any remaining marinade over the chicken, broccoli, and potatoes.
- Spread everything out evenly on the baking sheet, ensuring the chicken and vegetables are in a single layer.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (reaches an internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C) and the potatoes are tender. Cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of your chicken breasts, so use a meat thermometer to check for doneness.
- Once everything is cooked, remove the baking sheet from the oven, and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
- Serve your Sheet Pan Citrus and Sage Chicken with Roasted Broccoli and Potatoes hot, garnished with additional fresh sage leaves or a sprinkle of lemon zest if desired.
This meal is not only delicious but also convenient as it all comes together on a single sheet pan. Enjoy your citrusy, herb-infused chicken alongside the perfectly roasted broccoli and potatoes!
