Ingredients
  

For the sheet pan:

  • 2 lb chicken breasts or thighs cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 3 cups cauliflower florets or broccoli
  • 2 bell peppers sliced
  • 2-3 sweet potatoes chopped into cubes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Kosher salt & black pepper to taste
  • ½ cup buffalo sauce Frank’s RedHot or Primal Kitchen
  • 2 tbsp butter melted (or swap 1 tbsp olive oil for lighter)
  • 2 tbsp honey optional, for sweet heat
  • Optional crisp boost: 2 tbsp cornstarch to toss with chicken
  • Optional topping: ½ cup shredded mozzarella or Colby Jack
  • 2 green onions sliced

Greek-Yogurt Ranch Drizzle:

  • ½ cup Greek yogurt nonfat or 2%
  • 2 tbsp ranch seasoning store-bought or homemade
  • 1 –2 tbsp water or milk to thin

Let's Make It
 

  • Heat the oven: 425°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment for easy cleanup.
  • Add the sweet potatoes to the pan, season with salt and pepper, drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil. Bake for 10 minutes while you follow the next steps.
  • Prep the chicken: Pat dry. (Optional) Toss with 2 tbsp cornstarch for extra crisp edges. Add remaining 1½ tbsp oil and remaining spices; season with salt & pepper.
  • Take the potatoes out of the oven, move to one side.
  • Season the veg: On the pan, toss cauliflower and peppers with 1½ tbsp oil, half the garlic/onion/paprika, salt & pepper .
  • Bake: Arrange chicken over the veggies (don’t crowd). Roast 18–22 minutes, stirring once at 12 minutes, until chicken hits 165°F and edges are browned.
  • Buffalo glaze: In a small bowl, whisk buffalo sauce with melted butter (and honey, if using).
  • Sauce & finish: Drizzle half the buffalo glaze over the hot pan and toss to coat. (If using cheese, sprinkle now and return to oven 2–3 minutes to melt.)
  • Ranch drizzle: Stir yogurt + ranch seasoning; thin to drizzleable.
  • Serve: Top with green onions. Plate with extra buffalo sauce and ranch on the side.
