Mediterranean Chicken Thighs Sheet Pan Dinner

Mediterranean Sheet Pan Chicken Dinner Recipe

Get dinner on the table in no time and with only one pan when you serve this Mediterranean Sheet Pan Chicken Dinner! 

I love a good one pan dish and with school back in session and after-school activities starting to add up, dinner often has to be no muss and no fuss, which is why this Mediterranean Sheet Pan Chicken Thighs meal is perfect for those crazy busy nights.

I know that Greek food may sound difficult, but these chicken thighs are really easy to make and even better to eat. It needs to marinate a bit though, so make sure you prep the night before. This is one of those meals you could definitely prep and store in a freezer bag in the freezer (just leave out the cheese and potatoes until you plan to cook and serve). The longer it marinates, the deeper the flavor will be.

What Are Mediterranean Spices?

Mediterranean spices come from countries that all border the Mediterranean Sea. This includes the countries of Italy, Greece, Turkey, and Spain, among others.

The most common spices in Mediterranean dishes include:

• Rosemary
• Cumin
• Coriander
• Oregano
• Cinnamon

• Baby Potatoes
• Cherry Tomatoes
• English Cucumber

Mediterranean Sheet Pan Chicken Recipe

I prefer to let the chicken marinate overnight, but you can let it marinate for a few hours. Either way, you will discover that marinating a chicken will leave the thighs super juicy as they cook. They only take about 30 minutes to cook!
