How To Make It
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (400°F convection). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine all of the Sheet Pan Chicken ingredients and mix until the chicken and chickpeas are evenly coated.
  3. Spread the chickpeas and onions over the prepared baking sheet. Arrange the chicken thighs, skin side up, over the chickpeas.Roast for 30 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, combine the Vegetable ingredients in a medium bowl and mix until evenly coated.
  5. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Arrange the chicken on one side of the baking sheet. On the opposite side, add the broccoli and cherry tomatoes mixture. Gently mix with the chickpeas and pan juices until evenly coated.
  6. Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender crisp, the tomatoes have begun to burst, and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  7. Garnish with micro cilantro if desired, and serve immediately.
Chef's Notes
  1. Serve with your favourite grain or starch to soak up the flavourful pan juices.
  2. You can substitute the vegetables with cauliflower and peppers to change it up.
  3. Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet. If needed, divide the ingredients between two baking sheets so the chicken and vegetables roast instead of steam.
  4. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
