with half the butter and fat without compromising on a buttery flavour, this sheet pan garlic herb butter chicken is a complete sheet pan chicken dinner with roasted potatoes and green beans!
Believe it or not, this Sheet Pan Garlic Herb Butter Chicken recipe is low in fat and absolutely incredible. So buttery with so much flavour, it TASTES so sinful yet contains half the fat of a regular butter sauce that no one knows the difference! Only you….*Insert evil laugh*
I absolutely love sheet pan dinners. Throwing chicken dinners together on a sheet pan to feed the family dinners like this Sheet Pan Lemon Parmesan Chicken Milanese, or this Easy Sheet Pan Chicken Cordon Bleu & Dijon Cream Sauce couldn’t be easier! The best part about sheet pan meals is turning them into meal prep, like this Chicken & Sweet Potato Recipe! Store any leftovers into one serve size into airtight containers and you have lunch for the next few days!
Do you see how buttery this looks? ↓ The MOST perfect garlic herb butter sauce for chicken without worrying about squeezing into your jeans afterwards.
INGREDIENTS
1/3 cup low-sodium chicken broth or stock
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted (reduced fat or light butter if counting calories/fat)
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic (or 4 cloves)
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to your tastes)
Fresh ground black pepper, to season
4 x 5 ounce | 150 grams boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 pound (500 grams) baby potatoes, peeled and quartered into 1-inch pieces (Yukon gold or White Carisma Potatoes work the best)
1 pound (500 grams) green beans (or asparagus)
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 200°C | 400°F. Lightly grease a baking tray / sheet with cooking oil spray, or a light coating of oil. Set aside.
Combine together the butter, broth (or stock), garlic, parsley, thyme and rosemary together in a bowl.
Place chicken on the baking sheet and arrange the potatoes all around the chicken. Toss 1/2 cup of sauce through the chicken and potatoes, and season well with salt and pepper. Lightly spray all over with olive oil spray or cooking oil spray.
Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes or when potatoes just start to become golden.
Carefully remove baking tray from the oven and flip each chicken breast. Move the potatoes to one side and place the green beans around the chicken on the other side of the baking sheet. Pour the remaining garlic herb butter sauce over the beans, toss well and return to the oven for a further 10 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through (no longer pink in the middle) and potatoes are for tender.
Broil (or grill) for 2-3 minutes until chicken is golden and potatoes crisp.
Sprinkle with fresh chopped herbs (optional), and serve immediately with pan juices.
