What You Get
1.5 lb Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs
1 lb French Beans
1 pint Cherry Tomatoes
8 oz Castelvetrano Olives
1 Red Onion
2 cloves Garlic
¼ cup Basil
What You'll Need
Extra virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
Black pepper
Balsamic Vinegar
Sheet pan
Step 1
Heat the oven to 425 on convection or 450 on regular mode and set the rack in the middle position.
Step 2
Prepare your ingredients: Cut the chicken thighs into 1.5” cubes. Peel and slice the onions into ½” wedges. Trim the ends off the green beans, remove stems from cherry tomatoes, mince two cloves of garlic.
Step 3
Put the chicken, green beans, tomatoes, olives, onions and garlic on a sheet pan.
Step 4
Season with olive oil, salt, pepper., and gently toss the ingredients together, making sure the chicken and veggies are well coated and evenly distributed to ensure even cooking.
Step 5
Pop the sheet pan in the oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, rotating the tray halfway through cooking.
Step 6
Check to make sure the chicken pieces are cooked through (an inserted meat thermometer should register 165 degrees) and the green beans are blistered.
Step 7
To serve, drizzle with the balsamic vinegar and sprinkle with torn basil.
