Sheet Pan Honey Balsamic Chicken & Veggies is a delicious and easy meal that the whole family will love! Sheet pan meals are a quick way to get dinner on the table fast with little clean up since you’re cooking veggies and protein all on one pan.

Sheet pan dinners have made it high on my list of go-to meals during the week and I’ll explain why …

Here’s what makes sheet pan dinners so great:

1. They’re quick to put together and typically cook in under 35-minutes.

2. Clean up is easy since everything is being cooked (and can be prepared) on one pan.

3. It’s an easy way to cook for multiple people or cook enough so that you end up with leftovers for the busy week ahead.

4. The combinations of meat/fish, vegetables and marinades are endless, so you’ll never get bored of sheet pan dinners.

5. Allowing your meats and veggies to cook together in a marinade (or just some simple seasoning) is a great way to achieve a flavourful end product.

Now check out this delicious sheet pan dinner recipe!

    Your chicken dish looks fantastic! I adore Balsamic on a meal or dessert!! I use a reduced Balsamic on a wonderful dessert. I love the extra ingredients you added to your dressing. https://supperplate.com/2019/02/07/a-modern-twist-on-strawberry-shortcake/
