Chicken & Chickpea Traybake

There’s something incredibly satisfying about a meal that brings bold flavors, nourishing ingredients, and minimal cleanup—and that’s exactly what this Chicken & Chickpea Traybake delivers. With everything roasting together in a single pan, it’s not just convenient—it’s a wholesome, balanced dinner that’s as good for your body as it is for your schedule.

At the heart of this dish are juicy bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs. Rich in high-quality protein and essential nutrients like selenium and B vitamins, chicken thighs help support muscle repair, immune health, and sustained energy. When seasoned with a fragrant Moroccan spice mix, they offer depth and warmth without the need for heavy sauces or added sugar.

Chickpeas bring plant-based power to the pan—loaded with fiber to support digestion and keep you full, plus a healthy dose of protein and minerals like iron and magnesium. Combined with roasted potatoes, sweet red bell peppers, and tomatoes, you get a colorful medley that supports heart health, reduces inflammation, and fuels your body with a range of vitamins and antioxidants.

Roasting a whole head of garlic right on the sheet pan infuses the dish with subtle, mellow richness. Once softened, it’s mashed into the juices along with the roasted tomatoes to create a natural, deeply flavorful sauce—no extra effort required. Finished with fresh cilantro and a splash of apple cider vinegar, this traybake is as vibrant as it is nourishing.

Ideal for feeding a crowd or stocking the fridge for the week, this sheet pan meal proves that healthy eating can be simple, satisfying, and seriously delicious.
