I’ve recently become a HUGE fan of sheet-pan meals, as they’re incredibly easy to toss together, and you only need to wash one pan! Fewer dishes is always a win in my book! I make things even easier by tossing the veggies directly on my rimmed baking sheet, because again…fewer dishes. 😉 This Balsamic Chicken Sheet-Pan Dinner is my latest favorite meal that comes together in no time at all!
Although you can marinade the chicken in as little as 2 hours, I highly recommend marinating it for at least 12 hours, and up to 24! I’ll often let the chicken sit in the marinade overnight and then cook it up the following night. The longer the better!
If you’re feeding a crowd or love having leftovers on hand (I LOVE leftovers!), then feel free to double this recipe!
Enjoy this recipe for my Balsamic Chicken Sheet-Pan Dinner!
