Easy One Pan Balsamic Chicken with Roasted Vegetables – easy to prep, minutes to bake, and delicious to eat!
Easy One Pan Balsamic Chicken with Roasted Vegetables – a healthy paleo & gluten free recipe your family will devour! Tender juicy chicken covered in a sweet balsamic glaze has this one pan chicken bursting with flavor!
Lately, I’ve been looking through a lot of my old recipes. As in, recipes I posted back in 2013 or 2014 which were popular back in the day. Then I’m bringing them back to life with new updated photos and putting them back in front of you!
This One Pan Balsamic Baked Chicken is one of those dishes! Back in 2013 this recipe blew up for me on social media, and I was small then. It was consistently one of the top “repins” from my site.
But let’s be honest.
The photos were horrible, I couldn’t even tell what it was!!
I started my blog in 2013. So I was just learning how to work with my camera and how to focus; more less how to stage a shot. I’m hoping a facelift to this recipe will give it some much deserved attention. Because this recipe really is a winner. The flavors are on point, it is super easy to make and the clean up only consists of one pan.
You can’t get any easier than that folks!
This recipe has been a favorite of mine for a while. I’m kinda obsessed with anything that contains balsamic vinegar and the chicken thighs in this dish are marinaded in sweet balsamic goodness for maximum impact!
The skin on the chicken starts to crisp up in the oven as the balsamic caramelizes, which in my opinion is the best bite! While this dish is baking it fills your house with all the smells. I guarantee your family will be asking you when dinner will be done because they’ll be smelling it for 1 hour!
If I’m being honest I haven’t made this recipe in a while. After all, I’m usually making “new” recipes so I rarely repeat old ones. But when I decided to rephotograph it, I realized that some of the comments about the marinade were accurate. So while my goal was to give the photos a facelift the recipe actually got a facelift too!
All the same flavors are there, I just decreased the oil and vinegar quantities a bit so you weren’t having a little chicken with your SAUCE! 🙂

This recipe can easily be prepped ahead of time, so all you need to do the night of is throw everything in the pan and bake.
It’s a great healthy meal option that boasts of 30 grams of protein per serving and finishes off at 410 calories.
If you’d like to substitute the thighs with chicken breasts you can definitely do that. I just like the thighs in this recipe because they have more flavor! If you choose to do the breasts the bake time would decrease. Either way, you need to make this recipe! It’s loaded with flavor, nutrients and so easy to clean up!
Bon Appetit friends!
