    About this recipe

    We all have those nights after a long day where cooking does not feel possible and you really don't want to do take out. Sheet pan meals are perfect for these types of days!

    This za'atar chicken with sausage and vegetables is very versatile and perfect for those busy nights. I used potatoes and asparagus because that is what we had on hand but you can use whatever veggies you like.

    I also had some sausage links (leftover from making my sausage and peppers recipe), and 2 pieces of chicken (to feed 4), so I just combined them into one easy sheet pan meal.

    You can mix and match what you have available.

    Ingredients needed for this za'atar chicken recipe

    The ingredients for this za'atar chicken sheet pan meal are so simple. Here is what you will need:

    • Sausage. I used hot Italian sausage but you could use any variety you like.
    • Chicken breasts
    • Fresh asparagus
    • Creamer, golden or red potatoes.
    • Za'atar seasoning.
    • Olive oil
    • Kosher salt.

    How to make

    Making this za'atar sheet pan meal could not be any easier. It is all about one pan cooking with this recipe.

    Here are the steps:

    • Prep the veggies.
    • Place veggies and meats on to a large sheet pan.
    • Drizzle with olive oil and add za'atar seasoning.
    • Place in pre-heated oven for about 30 minutes.

    That is it! I told you this sheet pan za'atar chicken and veggies was simple.

    About the za'atar seasoning

    For the seasoning, I always have za'atar on hand (a spice mix of oregano, thyme, marjoram, toasted sesame seeds, salt and sumac) because I love it . Za'atar seasoning is a middle eastern spice blend.

    You can find this at almost all grocery stores now, in the spice section.

    I love adding za'atar seasoning to so many things. One of my favorite ways to use it is in dips like my avocado dip or in pork chops with cream sauce or on top of hummus.

    It will not go to waste if you have to buy it, once you see how flavorful it is!

    You can make your own za'atar seasoning, buy it or use another spice blend that you really like. The key is that all of the ingredients roast and caramelize together in the oven.

    Varitations

    As I mentioned above, this za'atar chicken sheet pan meal is all about the za'atar spices and the meat and veggies you have on hand.

    Here are some ideas of how to change it up a bit:

    • Use only chicken. If you do not have any sausages on hand, just make this with chicken only.
    • Use other veggies for this dish. I used what I had on hand but some other veggies that would be great with this za'atar chicken are:
      • Broccoli
      • Sweet potatoes
      • Red peppers
      • Cauliflower
    • Add some lemon slices to the sheet pan to give this za'atar chicken more of lemony note.
