This Sheet Pan Greek Chicken and Potatoes recipe is a complete dinner made on one pan! Tender, juicy chicken and golden potatoes seasoned with classic Greek flavors, roasted together until perfectly crispy and full of flavor.
This is a Sheet Pan Meal that just Hits!
I could eat this sheet pan dinner every week and not get tired of it. The potatoes turn perfectly crispy, the chicken stays juicy, and everything gets a bright finish of lemon, feta, and dill. It's so easy to throw together but it tastes good enough to serve guests.
My Biggest Tip: For extra crispy potatoes, make sure they're in a single layer with space between them on the pan. Crowding causes steaming instead of roasting! I also love adding kalamata olives and cherry tomatoes to the pan in the last 10 minutes of cooking. It's so good, I hope you try this one!
