These baked sheet pan chicken thighs with Brussels sprouts and radishes make the perfect simple dinner all on one pan! Minimal prep and clean up, ready in about 30-35 minutes! This healthy dinner is one the whole family loves.
We love serving up chicken for dinner and roasted veggies are a staple when it comes to side dishes around here.
Today, we’re sharing our recipe for this chicken thigh sheet pan dinner, where we took a few of our recipes and popped them all onto one sheet pan to make an easy, fuss-free meal that you can feel good about serving to your family!
Our keto chicken thighs, roasted Brussels sprouts, and roasted radishes are all favorites, so we just married it all together on one pan to make life (and dinner!) easier than ever.
I love this recipe because you can easily swap out the veggies to make a whole different meal. Try broccoli or cauliflower in place of the sprouts or radishes! Use chicken breasts or drumsticks in place of thighs. Mix up the seasoning with whatever sounds good. So simple to turn this into something completely different whenever the mood strikes!

Chicken – I prefer the bone-in chicken thighs with the skin on for this sheet pan recipe. You could also use bone-in breasts, wings, or drumsticks, but cook time may vary a bit.
Veggies – Along with the chicken thighs I’m adding some Brussels sprouts and halved radishes to roast with the chicken on the same sheet pan. These can easily be swapped for other veggies.
Seasoning – You’ll drizzle some olive oil over the chicken thighs and veggies and then coat them in a simple seasoning mix made from salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. We also like to garnish the chicken with some parsley after baking!
Sheet pan recipes are so easy! You just toss everything onto the same sheet and start baking. What could be simpler?
You’ll get perfectly crispy chicken skin when you finish the thighs under a broiler.
This makes a complete meal with minimal clean up and hardly any hands on time.
I love using this meat thermometer for making sure the meat is fully cooked! Easy for beginners & absolutely worth the low cost. Just stick it in the thickest part of the meat to check for doneness. This thermometer is also magnetic so it’s easy to store right on the side of the fridge or oven for easy access! Get it on Amazon.
How To Make Sheet Pan Chicken Thighs:
Prepare – To get started you’ll spritz a sheet pan with some nonstick spray or line it with parchment. Mix up the seasoning blend in a small bowl.
Seasoning – Rub the chicken with the seasoning and place on the sheet pan.
Veggies – Place the Brussels sprouts and radishes into a bowl and drizzle with some more olive oil. Sprinkle on the remaining seasoning and toss the veggies until they are well coated in the seasoning mixture.
Bake – Add the seasoned sprouts and radishes to the sheet pan with the chicken, arranging the vegetables around the thighs in any open space. Don’t overcrowd the pan for the best results – use two pans if you don’t feel like you have enough room. Bake for about 30 to 35 minutes or until the chicken has reached a safe internal temp (165 degrees) and the vegetables are tender!
Finish – If you’ve got a broiler I would recommend using it to finish the chicken and veggies. It’ll really help to make chicken skin nice and crispy and to brown the veggies. It won’t take long, just a couple minutes, so keep a close eye on it to prevent it from burning. We like to sprinkle some parsley over the chicken and veggies and serve it while it’s hot.
If you enjoyed these crispy baked chicken thighs I think you’ll also really enjoy this air fryer chicken thighs recipe! The air fryer is quick and easy to use for making crispy chicken.
Do you like your chicken with a little extra spice? Feel free to switch up the seasoning and use your preferred blend. If you like it hot and spicy add a bit of cayenne pepper to the seasoning! A sugar free BBQ rub or Cajun seasoning is also a fun way to mix it up!
Variations:
This is a great recipe to modify and make your own! Sheet pan chicken thighs go well with just about anything so feel free to switch it up with any low carb ingredients you like! Here are some suggestions for different variations:
Seasoning – Pretty much any type of seasoning you like can be used here. Smoked paprika would add a bit of smoky flavor. Red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, or even just some Cajun seasoning would spice things up a bit too if you want to add some heat
Herbs – We garnish this chicken with parsley but you could add other herbs either before or after baking. Fresh rosemary and thyme add a wonderful cozy vibe to this sheet pan meal.
Marinade – We just season these juicy bone in chicken thighs but there’s no reason you couldn’t first marinate them. My lemon pepper chicken marinade would add lots of good flavors to the chicken! Any low carb marinade you like would be fine to use here.
Veggies – We love the radishes and Brussels sprouts but you could easily swap those out for pretty much any other low carb vegetable you want. Green beans, bell peppers, onions, broccoli, and cauliflower are some good options.
Serving Suggestions:
These juicy chicken thighs already make for a pretty complete meal with the radishes and Brussels sprouts but you could serve them up with some other sides too, especially if not everyone enjoys Brussels sprouts.
Storage Instructions:
The baked chicken thighs and the roasted sprouts and radishes can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-5 days. This is great for meal prep!
We prefer to reheat meals in the air fryer for the best, freshest flavor, but these can be reheated in the microwave as well.
FAQs:
It should take about 30 to 35 minutes depending on the size of the chicken thighs. Bone in thighs take longer to bake than boneless. I would strongly recommend using a meat thermometer (linked above) to be sure the internal temp in the thickest part of the thigh has reached at least 165 degrees to be safe.
Although 165 degrees is when the meat is safe to eat that’s not necessarily when you should stop baking. Chicken thighs contain more collagen than chicken breasts and they don’t dry out as quickly, so they’ll benefit from a longer cook time and higher temperature, and will end up even more tender. A good target temperature is 175 to 180 degrees for tender, juicy chicken thighs!
You’ll bake the chicken thighs with radishes and Brussels sprouts uncovered. I would not recommend covering it up, you want all that heat to get everything nice and crispy!
