Oven Roasted Chicken Sheet
Warm up your oven and your family’s taste buds with this simple and savory oven-roasted chicken sheet recipe. It’s packed with flavorful spices, crisp vegetables, and juicy chicken that melts in your mouth.
Ingredients
- 7 boneless chicken wing pieces
- Whole chicken thighs (about 3 lbs)
- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon tomato paste
- 2 teaspoons mixed spices (e.g., oregano, thyme)
- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- 3 tablespoons sunflower oil
- 1½ teaspoons chili paste
- 10 cloves garlic, peeled
- 4 medium tomatoes, chopped
- 2 green bell peppers, sliced
- 1 large onion, sliced
- Salt, to taste
Instructions
- Wash the chicken pieces with lemon juice and vinegar, then pat them dry.
- Add the chicken to a large bowl, then pour in the oil and sprinkle all the spices. Mix until each piece is well coated.
- Arrange the onion slices on a baking sheet in a single layer. Spread the chicken on top with the skin side up, and if any pieces look too large, make a light cut with a knife to help them cook evenly. Toss in a few garlic cloves between the chicken.
- Scatter the chopped tomatoes over the assembly.
- Preheat the oven to 375 °F (190 °C). Bake the sheet for 40 minutes with the door closed.
- Broil the chicken for an additional 10 minutes with the green bell pepper slices on top, keeping them near the heating element, until the skin is golden and crispy.
- Serve hot straight from the oven.
Chef’s Tips
- Dry the chicken skin thoroughly before seasoning—it helps the skin crisp up beautifully.
- Use a wire rack on top of the sheet so the steam can circulate, keeping the meat juicy.
- For extra flavor, sprinkle fresh herbs (parsley or cilantro) after baking.
FAQ
- Can I replace the wings with more thighs?
- Absolutely! Feel free to increase the number of thighs or swap out wings altogether for a more tender dish.
- What if I don’t have sunflower oil?
- Use any neutral oil with a high smoke point—vegetable, canola, or even olive oil works well.
- Will this recipe work in a convection oven?
- Yes—just reduce the temperature by 25 °F and keep an eye on the browning since convection ovens cook slightly faster.
