Boneless Fig Balsamic Butter Chicken with Roasted Vegetables
I have been making a LOT of sheet pan suppers (SPS) lately. They are fast, easy, tasty and can be made so varied. Most importantly the clean up is insanely fast and that is my husband's job so it makes him really happy! SPS are the latest and greatest in my repertoire. I will definitely add other recipes, but tonight's was so fantastic I just had to include it. These recipes are as much for me (my virtual cookbook) as they are to share with friends. If you like acorn squash and chicken, you will like this. You could make it with butternut squash or sweet potatoes if you have those on hand instead. I also never made a SPS with butter in place of olive oil and it made it a little richer. Let me know how it comes out for you.
