📝 Ingredients for this Chicken, Broccoli and Potatoes recipe
- Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Baby potatoes
- Broccoli
- Maple syrup
- Whole grain Dijon mustard
- Olive oil
- Kosher Salt
And that's all you'll need!
🔪Instructions
Here's the high level steps, with more details below:
- First, pre-heat the oven, whisk up the sauce ingredients and prep the broccoli
- Then, get the potatoes into the oven on ⅓ of the sheet pan to start cooking
- Add chicken and broccoli to the pan. Coat everything with the sauce and stir to combine.
- Finishing baking in the oven until the chicken is done and potatoes are soft
🥣Equipment
For this recipe, I use my "baker's half sheet". This pan is about 26 x 18 inches, like it's BIG.
If you don't have a baking sheet this size, you can use 2 standard-sized cookie or baking sheets and just spread the ingredients over the 2 baking sheets.
🔄Substitutions
- Chicken - if you don't have boneless, skinless chicken breasts boneless thighs will also work just fine too
- Broccoli - if you don't have broccoli, you could easily swap in another vegetable that's delicious roasted like green beans, cauliflower, or brussel sprouts
- Baby potatoes - regular potatoes will work in place of the baby or mini potatoes. Just be sure to cut them up into small enough pieces so they finish cooking in about the same time. You could also sub in sweet potatoes too
🥡Storage and leftovers
You can store leftovers of this chicken and potatoes sheet pan meal in the fridge for up to 3 days. To store it, let it cool down first, then divide it into containers and store in fridge.
This recipe makes fantastic leftovers and it's great for meal prep too.
The only problem you'll find with making this for a meal prep is that you'll wanna EAT IT right after making it!
I don't blame ya - I'm the same🙋♀️
🥘What to serve with this sheet pan chicken
Since this recipe has chicken, broccoli and potatoes, you've got a complete meal all in one!
But if you want something on the side, why not boost the nutritional-punch of the meal but making a salad while everything bakes in the oven.
Try this Simple Romaine Salad with Radish and Parmesan or this Kale Quinoa Salad with Apple and Spiced Nuts.
Since you have a hot oven, you could also make a healthy dessert to have after you've eaten. Try a spin on a classic one like this Gluten-Free Apple Crisp (healthy recipe) or this Cherry and Peach Crisp with Oat Crumble (Gluten-Free, Healthy)😋
🏅2 Top Tips
#1: When you're pouring the maple sauce over everything, it might seem like it's not enough but trust me: you've got enough to cover everything. Your chicken and veggies won't be drenched and the broccoli will still stay slightly firm and not go soggy.
#2: If you won't be using the mini potatoes, be sure to dice the larger potatoes into smaller pieces. This way, everything will still get cooked around the same time.
This is one meal that really makes gluten-free eating super easy. It's healthy and deeeelicious too😋
Hope enjoy this Sheet Pan Chicken, Broccoli, and Potatoes recipe!

I was looking at the nutrition info for this recipe, 49% sodium seems a little high. Is that correct?
Marshall says
Actually, all of the daily values look really really high - there must be a mistake.

Good catch Marshall - yes, that does seem off. I'll take a closer look...thanks for commenting!

Re-calculated...looks better. It was pulling a strangely high number for the broccoli of all things lol Fixed!
