Description

This easy and delicious one-pan ranch chicken and vegetables recipe combines tender chicken tenders with frozen mixed vegetables and bite-sized potatoes, all seasoned with classic ranch seasoning. Prepared on a single baking sheet, this hearty meal is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner with minimal cleanup.

Ingredients

Chicken

  • 1 lb. chicken tenders
  • 1 (1-oz.) pkg. ranch seasoning mix, divided

Vegetables and Potatoes

  • 1 (32-oz.) pkg. frozen mixed vegetables
  • 1 (24-oz.) bag bite-sized potatoes, quartered
  • Cooking spray or oil, for greasing and coating
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Season Chicken: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Place the chicken tenders and half of the ranch seasoning packet into a large zip-top bag. Shake well to coat the chicken evenly with the ranch seasoning mix.
  2. Prepare Baking Sheet and Vegetables: Spray or lightly drizzle oil onto a large baking sheet. Spread the quartered potatoes and frozen mixed vegetables onto the sheet. Spray or drizzle the vegetables and potatoes with oil and toss gently to coat everything evenly.
  3. Combine and Season: Arrange the seasoned chicken tenders on top of the vegetables and potatoes. Sprinkle the remaining half of the ranch seasoning packet, along with the kosher salt and black pepper, over the entire sheet. Use tongs to gently mix the ingredients on the sheet so flavors are well distributed.
  4. Bake Until Done: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and is slightly browned. The vegetables and potatoes should be tender and cooked through.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, you can broil the dish for the last 2-3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  • Feel free to substitute fresh vegetables if preferred, just adjust the bake time accordingly.
  • This recipe can be doubled to serve more people, using a larger baking sheet or two sheets.
  • Make sure to check the internal temperature of the chicken to ensure it is fully cooked.
