One Pan Roasted Chicken and Vegetables

On busy or tired days, I’ve always wanted to pour all meat and vegetables in one baking sheet and throw them in the oven for dinner! This recipe is a great option! In Japan, this dish is called “GyuGyu Yaki” (ぎゅうぎゅう焼き), meaning that the vegetables and meat are tightly packed in the sheet pan!

My husband especially like this because not much seasoning (in fact, only salt and pepper!) is used so you can truly taste the freshness of the vegetables! The vegetables listed in the recipe are my recommended ones, but you can actually pick any seasonal vegetables as per your preference! I usually pair this dish with a little bit of steamed rice for the kids. Alternatively, you can also replace with potatoes, just throw them in the pan as well when roasting!
