Sheet Pan Chicken with Apples and Cabbage: A Sweet and Savory One-Pan Wonder
Sheet pan chicken with apples and cabbage is a deliciously simple meal that combines tender, roasted chicken bites with sweet apples and savory cabbage.
With minimal prep and just one pan, it’s a perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors for a cozy weeknight dinner.
Because it’s important to get the cooking times even and correct when making a sheet pan dinner, I’ve cut these chicken into smaller bite size pieces…both to reduce the cooking time and also to increase the flavor…more marinade is coating the chicken!
The cabbage roasts quickly, so I needed to cut the chicken into 1/2-inch size pieces and the apples into fatter slices so that everything would cook evenly on the sheet pan.
And with that, let’s get to the recipe…
