Notes
Notes:
Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Helpful tips: Line the sheet pan with a single layer of chicken and veggies. Overcrowding a sheet pan will cause the food to steam and will give a different texture to the chicken and broccoli.
Using aluminum foil or parchment paper on the sheet pan will make clean up a breeze!
If you use bone-in chicken thighs, you will need to increase the cooking time.
