Sheet Pan BBQ Chicken Thighs with Potatoes & Vegetables
These sheet pan BBQ chicken thighs are roasted alongside baby potatoes, green beans, and corn for an easy all-in-one dinner. Juicy chicken, bold barbecue flavor, and simple vegetables come together on one pan for a comforting, family-friendly meal with minimal cleanup.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large, rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Place the halved baby potatoes on one-third of the sheet pan. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
Nestle the chicken thighs in the pan. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Brush both sides generously with BBQ sauce.
Add green beans and mini corn on the cob to the remaining third of the pan. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and season lightly with salt.
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the skin is golden and crisp. Potatoes should be fork-tender, and the corn lightly roasted.
For extra caramelization, broil (just the chicken) for 2 to 3 minutes at the end of cooking.
Garnish with chopped parsley before serving, if desired.
Notes
Don’t overcrowd the pan; space helps everything roast, not steam.
Brush BBQ sauce on late in the cook if yours burns easily.
Use an instant-read digital meat thermometer for perfectly cooked chicken every time.
Pre-cut parchment paper sheets that fit your sheet pan save time and aggravation. You can purchase them at kitchen stores or online.
This step is completely optional, but blanching fresh green beans for 2–3 minutes before roasting can help retain their bright color. Be sure to dry them before roasting.
