[Question] What are some good sheet pan recipes? (sopuli.xyz)

My tolerance for cooking lately has been putting something in the oven and coming back some time later so I'd like some sheet pan dinner recommendations to change up fish fillets or brownies (or takeout).

You can cook chicken breasts in the oven without needing to brown them in a skillet first. I like to meal prep so I can just pull leftovers out of the freezer later, but if you want a single serving you can reduce accordingly:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
  2. Rub 1 tablespoon of olive oil onto both sides of 2 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts.
  3. Season both sides of the chicken with a mixture of 0.5 teaspoons each of garlic powder, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
  4. Cook the chicken in a 9×13 casserole dish (a rimmed baking sheet should work too, but it must have a rim) for 20-30 minutes. It'll depend on the thickness, but you want the internal temperature to reach 165°F.
  5. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before eating.

The extra breasts freeze well, so you can simply reheat them with a bag of frozen veggies on nights when you don't want to bother with the oven. I've also done the single servings of Bush's baked beans as a side.

Cube 2 potato. Toss in olive oil. Toss in 2 tablespoons minced garlic/garlic powder and like 2 tablespoons minced onion/onion powder, paprika, salt, oregano and minced rosemary. Toss again in bowl to evenly coat everything.

Spread on sheet. Roast at 325 for 22 mins or so until brown and crispy. Shread your favoutite cheeses on top and let them melt by heat from being fresh out of the oven.

I recommend mozza, sharp cheddar and parmagiano combo. Also consider parmagiano and pecorino combo.

This isn’t a recipe but I feel your pain and can I make a suggestion? You should buy a slow cooker. Hear me out, you can find a ton of recipes online where you just throw a bunch of stuff in the slow cooker and come back in eight hours to awesome stew or slow cooked meat or soup or … well lots of stuff.

Is there any slow cooker you recommend? I've been considering getting one for a while

Honestly The cheapest one is fine. I got ours at K-Mart for $20 about 15 years ago and it great. The one this to look for is make sure the ceramic pot is removable so you can take it out to clean. After that its all bells and whistles your not really going to need.

Slow cookers are a great poor person’s friend. They’re cheep to buy and run, and slow cooking lets you get the best out of cheap cuts of meat, and if your a vegetarian, slow cooking a big vat of stew or soup and then freezing leftovers is real value.
