One Pan Garlic Crusted Chicken & Veggies

One Pan Garlic Crusted Chicken and Veggies

We had such a fun Valentines Day loving on each other & treating ourselves to some good heart shaped food (chicken biscuits, sandwiches, pizza) & a few sweets (cookie cake!). That means the rest of the week will be filled with healthier choices to make up for the damage. I know that healthy can sometimes be hard because a lot of the time healthy means more expensive and more time consuming, but I want to share with you a recipe today that debunks that thought! (This meal takes cost about $10 and took about 45 minutes start to finish!) I try to do these “one pan” meals at least once a week. It makes for easy cooking and quick clean up! I make sure and put at least one thing on the pan that I know the kids really enjoy so that even if they aren’t feeling the whole pan, what they choose to fill up on is still good for them. 

Cooked Chicken and Vegetables

This week we are eating garlic crusted chicken strips with sweet potatoes and green beans. Sprout can eat his weight in sweet potatoes and Chickadee is always up for chicken (I suppose it’s quite an appropriate nickname for her0. 

This recipe fed our family of four….we ate it all (probably had one extra chicken strip that could have been left over but III rarely lets food go unfinished unless it’s enough to be true leftovers)!

One Pan Chicken Dinner

You’ll need 1 package (about 6-8) of chicken strips, 1 sweet potato, and a solid double palm full of fresh green beans. You’ll need to peel, slice, and dice the sweet potato and snap the stringy ends off the green beans. For the chicken pour one bowl of olive oil and a tablespoon of minced garlic and in the other bowl add Italian bread crumbs.

Garlic Breadcrumb Dip

Dip the chicken in the olive oil/garlic mixture first, then coat in bread crumbs before placing on a pan covered with parchment paper. The sweet potatoes and green beans will go on the other half of the pan. Toss them in olive oil and garlic salt. 

0Chicken Veggie Pan

This chicken and veggie combination is packed with flavor. I love the taste and the ease of these one pan or one pot dinners! I am actually making another one later this week with pork tenderloin I’ll share with you soon.
