Apples, Sweet Potatoes, Brussel Sprouts, and Red Onions

Ingredients Needed

  • 2 pounds bone-in skin on chicken thighs
  • 1 large sweet potato

  • 1 pound brussels sprouts
  • red onion
  • olive oil
  • garlic
  • fresh sage
  • fresh rosemary
  • fresh parsley
  • maple syrup

Chicken Thighs with Apples and Vegetables

What Kind of Sheet Pan to Use

One of the problems with sheet pan meals is that they often aren’t enough to feed a whole family. So you can either use two sheet pans, or try one of these big sheet pans that I have been loving. It’s 21×12 vs the standard 12×17. This allows for more food to feed a family of four to five. Even with a standard sheet pan dinner, these bigger pans allow more space for browning. This recipe will work with either a regular sized sheet pan or a bigger sheet pan.

Recipe Tips

  • Before preparing the apples and vegetables, build the marinade for the chicken thighs and let them marinate at room temperature while prepping the rest of dinner.
  • Dice vegetables and apples according to cooking time. Sweet potatoes should be cut smaller to cook quicker, while apple slices should be cut larger.
  • If substituting dried herbs for fresh, reduce dried herbs to one teaspoon since they have a stronger flavor.
  • Maple glaze is optional but adds a touch of sweetness to the chicken which is a nice contrast to the vegetables.
