How to make Sheet Pan BBQ Chicken Thighs with Baby Potatoes, Green Beans & Corn

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
  2. 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.
  3. Nestle the chicken thighs in the center of the pan. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Brush both sides generously with BBQ sauce.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. For extra caramelization, broil (just the chicken) for 2 to 3 minutes at the end of cooking.
  7. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving, if desired.

FAQs

Can I use boneless thighs or chicken breasts?
Yes. Boneless thighs or breasts will cook faster—check for doneness at 25–28 minutes and avoid overbaking.

Can I swap the vegetables?
Yes. You can substitute with broccoli, asparagus, or sliced bell peppers. Watch cook time for more delicate vegetables.
