BBQ Chicken Bliss on a Sheet Pan: A Flavorful Feast with Minimal Cleanup

Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 1 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite)
• 2 cups baby potatoes, halved
• 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
• 1 piece red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 piece yellow bell pepper, sliced
• 1 piece red onion, cut into wedges
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• to taste salt and pepper
• for garnish fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved baby potatoes, corn, sliced bell peppers, and red onion. Drizzle with olive oil, then season with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss everything until evenly coated.
3. Spread the vegetable mixture in an even layer on one side of the prepared baking sheet.
4. In the same bowl, add the chicken thighs, then pour half of the BBQ sauce over them and toss to coat well.
5. Place the BBQ-coated chicken thighs on the remaining empty side of the sheet pan.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the vegetables are tender.
7. About 5 minutes before the cooking time is up, drizzle the remaining BBQ sauce over the chicken for an extra sticky glaze.
8. Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
