One Pan Chicken Green Beans and Potatoes (Baked & Ready in 30 Minutes!)

One of our favorite family dinners is this one pan chicken, green beans, and potatoes baked with garlic and lemon. It’s healthy, delicious, and easy to make!

This one sheet pan chicken dinner is full of flavor and ready in just 30 minutes! We use garlic and lemon to season the chicken, and it’s all it really needs!

Plus, the clean-up is so simple because everything is on this one pan! 

What other vegetables could I use in this recipe?

You can really use a variety of vegetables for our one sheet pan garlic and lemon chicken. So if you don’t have green beans or red potatoes on hand, you can still follow this sheet pan recipe.

Some good vegetables to use with our garlic and lemon chicken are:

• broccoli
• asparagus
• zucchini
• brussel sprouts
• snow peas
• eggplant
• onions chopped up in large pieces

You could also use yellow or sweet potatoes or a winter squash like butternut squash instead of the red potatoes.

How long does it take to bake a chicken breast?

It depends on the size of the breast and the temperature of your oven.

Typically, a 4-oz chicken breast bakes in 25-30 minutes at 350˚F  and for about 15-18 minutes at 425˚F .

Since we’re baking multiple chicken breasts and vegetables for this recipe, we recommend baking everything for 30 minutes at 425˚F.

How To Bake Chicken In The Oven

For this recipe, you’ll want to preheat the oven to 425˚F  and lightly spray the sheet pan with non-stick cooking pray.

Then, you’ll lay the chicken flat on the pan, side-by-side. 

Next, we cover the chicken with lemon, garlic, salt, and pepper evenly. You can also add in a little butter to each chicken breast if you’d like.

Then, you’ll bake the chicken (with or without vegetables – your choice) for 30 minutes.

The chicken should be cooked through with no pink in the middle and have an internal temperature of 165˚F.

Can I make this with frozen chicken breasts?

Yes – you’ll just want to let them thaw either over night in the refrigerator or defrost them using a microwave before baking it.

Are you asking, “Is this chicken done?”

If you’re wondering if your chicken is cooked through, you can always check it with a meat thermometer. It should have an internal temperature of 165˚F.

While you could go purely on appearance, the outside of the chicken can be deceiving. A good meat thermometer is affordable and such a quick and easy hack to make sure your chicken is cooked through!

How does this recipe count on the 21 Day Fix?

If you’re following the Ultimate Portion Fix or the 21 Day Fix meal plan, we’d consider this recipe to be 1 red, 1 green, and 1 yellow.

Since the ingredients are all separated, you could measure out your vegetables into a green container and potatoes into a yellow container as well.

We also love serving a fresh strawberry shortcake cheesecake for dessert in the Summer or a keto peanut butter pie in the Winter!

Notes

You can always substitute in your favorite hearty vegetables instead of the green beans. We like to use asparagus, zucchini, eggplant, brussel sprouts, or snow peas.

You could also swap the red potatoes for 2 medium yellow potatoes, sweet potatoes, or a winter squash like butternut squash.

The cooking time and temperature would remain the same.

If you're following the Ultimate Portion Fix or the 21 Day Fix meal plan, we'd consider this recipe to be 1 red, 1 green, and 1 yellow.

Since the ingredients are all separated, you could measure out your vegetables into a green container and potatoes into a yellow container as well.
