Description

This roasted chicken with butternut squash and zucchini is a simple and delicious sheet pan dinner that's perfect for a weeknight meal. The horseradish adds a unique and flavorful kick to the chicken, while the butternut squash and zucchini provide a healthy and colorful side. I love how easy it is to throw everything on a sheet pan and let the oven do the work! It's a great way to get a complete and satisfying meal on the table with minimal effort. Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or onions for even more flavor and nutrients. This recipe is also easily adaptable to be gluten-free by ensuring your Dijon mustard is gluten-free.

Ingredients (15 ingredients)

  • 2 pounds butternut squash
  • 0.25 cup chopped fresh sage
  • 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 4 piece boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 piece medium zucchini
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.125 teaspoon ground black pepper

Preparation (9 steps)

1

Prepare Butternut Squash

Peel, seed, and cut the butternut squash into 1-inch cubes. Place the cubed butternut squash in a bowl.

2

Combine Squash Ingredients

Add ¼ cup chopped fresh sage, ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and ½ teaspoon salt to the bowl with the butternut squash. Toss until the squash is completely coated.

3

Prepare Horseradish Chicken

In a separate bowl, combine 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 2 teaspoons onion powder, and 1 teaspoon garlic powder.

4

Coat Chicken Thighs

Add 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs to the horseradish mixture and mix until well coated.

5

Prepare Zucchini

Slice 1 medium zucchini into 16 equal size spears. Place the zucchini spears in a bowl.

6

Dress Zucchini

In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar. Brush the olive oil mixture on the zucchini spears and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon garlic powder and ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper.

7

Preheat Oven

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

8

Arrange on Baking Sheet

Place the butternut squash on the right side of a large nonstick baking sheet (17 1/4 x 11 1/2-inches). Place the chicken thighs in the center of the baking sheet. Place the zucchini spears on the left side of the baking sheet.

9

Bake

Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
