Ingredients You Will Need
Chicken thighs: I love using chicken thighs because they always come out juicy and tender from the extra fat that comes from the thighs. I like Grass Roots Coop for all my meat purchases. You can use PENNYP to save.
Red bell pepper: are a member of the nightshade family and are related to tomatoes. They can be green, red, yellow or orange eaten cooked or raw.
Brussel sprouts: are a member of the cabbage family and are grown for their edible buds. They are high in vitamin C and beneficial for your immune system and your heart!
Artichoke hearts: are the edible flower bud of a thistle plant. While artichokes are typically cooked whole only the heart is fully edible.
Grape tomatoes: while small like cherry tomatoes they differ in texture and shape. Oblong in shape with a slightly thicker skin, making them a little less juicy and a little less sweet than cherry tomatoes.
Kalamata olives: are a type of Greek olive known for their distinctive dark purple to black color and almond shape. These olives have a smooth, meaty texture and rich fruity flavor, perfect for a Greek chicken sheet pan dish.
Baby whole potatoes: are a starchy root vegetable. They are small, bite-sized potatoes that have a more concentrated flavor making them ideal for salads, baked, roasted or pan-fried.
Extra virgin olive oil: stands out as an excellent choice for sautéing, adding richness and enhancing the natural flavors of foods.
Red wine vinegar: is known for its distinctive tangy flavor and the perfect addition to this dish in place of red wine.
Garlic: adds a savory note that enhances the dish with its bold and aromatic flavor.
Dried oregano: is an intensely flavored herb, ground oregano brings a peppery bite and a slightly sweet, earthy aroma to the dish.
Dried Basil: offers convenience and potency and is a savory herb that is usually a little sweet.
Salt and black pepper: salt enhances the overall flavor of the dish and ground black pepper adds a gentle heat to the Greek chicken sheet pan.
Dijon mustard: is my preferred mustard for this recipe as it imparts a subtle tanginess and a vinegary note.

While not mandatory, marinating the Greek chicken for at least 30 minutes (and up to 24 hours) can significantly enhance the flavor.
