Jalapeno Chicken

Our sheet pan chicken combines spicy jalapeno, fresh ginger and zesty lime with chicken, green beans and tri-colored potatoes for a fabulously delicious dinner that’s quick and easy for any weeknight.

Ok, so I’ve been caught cheating on my One Pot recipes, with Sheet Pan recipes!

Have you tried them yet? It’s an entire dinner cooked in the oven on a sheet pan while you relax and sip on your beverage of choice and unwind after a long day. Just as wonderful as One Pot recipes, don’t you think?

You’ve got your protein, vegetable and starch all together and bursting with a fabulous flavor combination that’s topped off with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

Trust me when I tell you that this sheet pan chicken recipe is so good you will want to serve it for company too!

Have you noticed the tri-colored potatoes in your produce section? I used these colorful potatoes in this recipe.

A combination of creamy yellow potatoes, baby reds and gorgeous purple potatoes will make any dinner feel gourmet.

I was so excited when they caught my eye (yes, I’m a true foodie and get excited about potatoes!) and just knew I had to use them when developing this sheet pan dinner. Because they’re just so pretty!

Be sure to use a large sheet pan so the food isn’t crowded, otherwise everything will steam instead of roast.

My favorite set of sheet pans includes three sizes of pans that are sturdy and well made.

So go ahead and make cooking dinner a cinch tonight and make Jalapeno Lime Chicken, a delicious sheet pan recipe!
