Ingredients

  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil, and more for greasing sheet pan
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • teaspoons Diamond Crystal kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano, or dried marjoram
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • ½ pound small yellow potatoes, cut into 1-inch wedges
  • 1 pound asparagus, ends trimmed
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges
  • ¼ cup minced fresh Italian parsley

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 400°F convection roast or 425°F conventional, with the rack in the upper middle position.
  • While the oven is heating up, lightly grease a rimmed baking sheet with some extra virgin olive oil or olive oil spray.
  • In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, kosher salt, dried oregano, and pepper. Whisk until uniform.
  • Add the chicken and potatoes to the bowl and toss well to combine. Transfer the chicken and potatoes to the greased rimmed baking sheet.
  • Toss in the asparagus, so the spears are coated with the marinade. Arrange the ingredients in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and add the lemon wedges to the pan.
  • Pop the sheet pan into the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Then, rotate the sheet pan 180° and increase the switch the temperature to broil.
  • Broil on high for 3 to 5 minutes or until everything is fully cooked, most of the liquid has evaporated, and the dish has golden brown bits. Keep an eye on it!
  • Remove the tray from the oven and sprinkle the minced fresh Italian parsley and squeeze on the juice from the charred lemon wedges all over the tray before serving!

Notes

  • I love serving this sheet pan supper with my paleo tzatziki sauce! You can also serve it on a big bed of salad greens with cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, and Kalamata olives to pack on the veggies.
  • Leftover chicken and veggies can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. You can reheat leftovers in an Anyday bowl in a microwave for about 90 seconds on high or until heated through.
