Yes, I’m cooking something other than beef these days. But don’t get used to it. Beef is still my main protein of choice when it comes to feeding my family. And let me let you in on a little secret: I didn’t eat ANY of this sheet pan BBQ chicken and potatoes. Mom was the picky one this time around. And not for reasons you might think.

In fact, something strange happens to my appetite when I cook with raw chicken. I don’t feel like eating it! But since I’m not only satisfying my own taste buds most days, I still serve chicken to the Four Tops when my mood strikes. What you’ll also notice from my pictures is that I served this sheet pan BBQ chicken and potatoes with macaroni and cheese. So guess what Mom ate? The MAC. And a few potatoes.

Ok this cute face ate some macaroni and cheese too!

You can’t argue with the sides that typically accompanies a BBQ chicken dinner. And I can’t argue with the fact that my family will agree on a sugary, sweet sauce for chicken. Hey, if they’re eating it without complaints, I’m serving it with a condiment. And tonight it just so happened to be BBQ sauce!

Ingredients You’ll Need

  • Chicken breast [you could easily swap chicken thighs or drumsticks]. I had two really BIG chicken breasts, so I cut them into 2-3 inch pieces. That helped make the chicken and potatoes cook at a similar rate. And it was just enough for 4 kids. You might want to increase the recipe or amount of chicken you cook depending on the number of adults you’re feeding.
  • BBQ seasoning or spice rub- we like McCormick Grill Mates
  • Your family’s favorite BBQ sauce [we love Sweet Baby Ray’s!]
  • Fingerling potatoes or any potato cubed into similar bite-sized pieces.
  • Onions and any other hearty-veggie to go alongside for roasting!

More Sheet Pan Recipes to Try

  • Sheet Pan Chicken & Broccoli
  • Sheet Pan Garlic Parmesan Chicken
  • Sheet Pan Sausage Peppers and Onions
Final shot! What dinner looks like for the Four Tops. As you can see they are all served pretty much the same thing… but who eats what is the great debate!

Even though I didn’t try this meal, I can tell you that EVERY SINGLE ONE of my children [remember I have 4] ate the chicken. Two ate the potatoes. And no one ate the onions. Any guesses on who ate the potatoes?! DON’T FORGET THE MACARONI!
