This recipe for One Pan Ranch Chicken and Veggies is perfect for a weeknight dinner when you are short on time and don't want to mess everything in the kitchen up.

Lately, I have been doing a lot of experimenting with one-sheet pan dinners.

What this is, is the perfect way to put a twist on cooking and make ALL of your food all on one tray, which frees up your time washing dishes and cooking in the kitchen.

Today I am going to share with you my favorite new sheet pan dinners — one I have made multiple times now — One Pan Ranch Chicken and Veggies Dinner.

All you need for this photo are just a few ingredients right from your pantry —

Chicken
Baby New Potatoes
fresh veggies of your choosing
brown sugar
Garlic cloves, minced
salt and pepper for taste
ranch seasoning mix packet

Making this dish is simple and easy and your family will RAVE about the taste. So — here is how you make this yummy dish!

One Pan Ranch Chicken and Veggies Dish

Start by preheating your oven to 400 degrees. Then take a sheet pan like this one that I have (it is fairly large to accommodate all the veggies and chicken) and spray it with cooking spray.

Now, take each chicken breast and rub it generously with 1 teaspoon of brown sugar per chicken breast.

The brown sugar melts into the chicken creating this delicious sweetness that you will definitely sit up and take notice of when the dish is done.

Now, take your fresh veggies and spread them on the sheet pan in a single layer. I like to use new baby potatoes, baby carrots, grape tomatoes, broccoli, and sweet potatoes.

Drizzle the veggies with olive oil and then place the chicken on top of the veggies. Sprinkle on the garlic, and ranch seasoning. Then, season with salt and pepper to taste.

Place in the oven and roast the food until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 25-30 minutes.

Then serve to your family for everyone to enjoy!

Would it change the cooking time if the pan was lined with aluminum foil. Seems like that would help some if the mess.

I never thought of adding brown sugar to a ranch mix. I bet that tastes great!!

One sheet dinners are the best - easier clean up is a must in my book!

This is a great take on the one pot meals that are so popular. I particularly like the idea of putting brown sugar on the chicken and I will be trying that very soon.

I love one pan dishes. They are so simple and the cleanup is also a breeze. That Palmolive looks like it would help me out too!
