Baked Boneless Chicken Thighs and Veggies
This meal is made with colorful vegetables and boneless, skinless chicken thighs, which are much juicier than breasts, and tossed with a simple Italian dressing marinade. The ingredients can be marinated ahead and roasted just before dinner.

How to Make Baked Chicken Thighs
What goes well with Italian chicken?
This sheet pan chicken and veggies dish is a complete meal as is. If you want to add grains, quinoa or brown rice would be great. You could also serve the baked chicken thighs with mashed potatoes or roasted potatoes. I wouldn’t recommend pasta since there isn’t much sauce.
How to Freeze
Leftover chicken and vegetables will last in the refrigerator for three days, or you can freeze the mixture. Once the meal completely cools, portion it into containers and freeze it for up to three months. To eat, thaw the food in the fridge overnight and reheat it in a 325°F-oven for about 20 minutes.
Variations:
Whole 30 and Paleo-Compliant: Omit the sugar in the seasoning. Herbs: You can use dried thyme in the seasoning if you don’t have fresh. Also, if you’re missing an herb, try it with dried rosemary or parsley. Vegetables: Sub the veggies with whatever you have on hand. Cauliflower, broccoli, and brussels sprouts would all be good. Chicken: If you would chicken breasts, bake them for 20 minutes total. If you use bone-in thighs, remove the vegetables after 30 minutes and bake the thighs for an extra 10 minutes.
