- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1.5-inch pieces
- 1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges (for serving)
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to create the garlic butter sauce.
- In a large bowl, toss the chicken pieces with half of the garlic butter sauce until evenly coated.
- Place the chicken pieces on one half of the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.
- In the same bowl (no need to wash), toss the halved Brussels sprouts with the olive oil and the remaining half of the garlic butter sauce.
- Spread the coated Brussels sprouts on the other half of the baking sheet.
- Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and roast for 20 to 25 minutes.
- Check the chicken temperature; it should reach 165°F (74°C) internally, and the Brussels sprouts should be tender and slightly browned.
- Remove from the oven and serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges.
Notes
- For crispier sprouts, toss them with 1 teaspoon of cornstarch before adding the sauce.
- If you prefer chicken breasts, cut them into uniform 1-inch pieces and reduce the cooking time slightly, checking doneness around 18 minutes.
- Use fresh garlic for the best flavor in the butter sauce.
