Sheet Pan Suppers
One pan. One dinner. Almost no dishes. Protein and vegetables roasted together, the whole dinner, hands-off, in about forty minutes. Pick one, or learn the formula and stop needing the recipe.
The method, once and for all
Heat the oven to 425°F and line a sheet pan with parchment. Toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt and pepper and spread them out, don’t crowd the pan, or they’ll steam instead of roast. Add the protein, and follow the one rule: stagger by cook time, dense vegetables and thick proteins go in first; quick things like shrimp, asparagus and cherry tomatoes join partway so nothing overcooks. Everything’s done when the protein hits temperature: 165°F for chicken, just-opaque for fish and shrimp.

Make it your own
That’s the whole chapter, really: pick a protein, two or three vegetables, a seasoning or a marinade, and roast. After a couple of these you won’t need the list, you’ll open the fridge, see what’s there, and build your own. It pairs perfectly with Set the Week.
