How to make Sheet Pan BBQ Chicken Thighs with Baby Potatoes, Green Beans & Corn
- 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 center of 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 165°F internal temperature and the skin is golden and crisp. Potatoes should be fork-tender, and the corn lightly roasted.
