A quick and easy sheet pan dinner featuring crispy ranch-seasoned chicken thighs roasted with baby potatoes and green beans, perfect for family meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Ranch seasoning mix (store-bought or homemade, about 2 tablespoons)
  • 1.5 pounds baby potatoes, halved
  • 12 ounces green beans, trimmed
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
  3. In a medium bowl, toss the chicken with olive oil and ranch seasoning mix until evenly coated.
  4. In another bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes and green beans with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  5. Spread the seasoned potatoes on one side of a sheet pan, nestle the chicken thighs skin-side up next to the potatoes, and place the green beans on the other side.
  6. Roast in the oven for 25 minutes.
  7. After 25 minutes, flip the chicken thighs skin-side up if needed and stir the green beans. Add frozen green beans now if using.
  8. Continue roasting for another 12-15 minutes until chicken skin is golden and crispy, potatoes are tender, and chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  9. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
  10. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve hot.

Notes

Dry chicken skin thoroughly before seasoning for best crispiness. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even roasting. If skin isn’t crispy enough, broil for 2-3 minutes at the end, watching closely to prevent burning. Rest chicken after roasting to lock in juices. For gluten-free, use almond flour mixed with ranch seasoning. Frozen green beans should be added halfway through cooking.
