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.
