Sheet Pan Rooster and Greens Roasted

You may eat the roasted rooster and greens alone or pair it with cooked grains (like quinoa or rice) or roasted potatoes (most likely my fave combo).

In the event you determine to eat it with roasted root greens like potatoes, I extremely suggest cooking them for 35 to 40 minutes, and tossing them halfway via.

In the event you don’t like broccoli and purple peppers, you might strive inexperienced beans or asparagus, carrots and even Brussels sprouts.

Sheet Pan Rooster Breast Suggestions

Right here’s a couple of extra cooking notes for the recipe:

Rooster breasts are available all styles and sizes, and I discover that rooster breasts are sometimes occasions thicker on one aspect. To ensure even cooking, I lower the rooster breasts in half crosswise, separating the thicker portion from the thinner one. Then, I slice the thick portion of the rooster breast horizontally to get two ½-inch slices. So, one breast ought to yield 3 items, typically 4 if the breast could be very thick throughout.
Lastly, all the rooster items and greens ought to slot in one giant jelly roll pan. Just be sure you don’t crowd all the pieces right into a small sheet pan since you’ll find yourself steaming all the pieces as a substitute of roasting them. In the event you don’t have a jelly roll pan, 2 giant rimmed baking sheets will do the job.
