Sheet pan recipes are the best because, as you may have guessed, they’re made entirely on one sheet pan. They’re generally quick to prep and even quicker to clean up which makes them one of our favorite ways to get dinner on the table. They’re also great for meal prep sessions because you can either make them from start to finish for an easy reheat and eat meal later or you can prep all of the ingredients like a restaurant prep cook would do to be assembled and baked when it’s time to eat.

We use both methods depending on how much time we have on the weekend for meal prepping. We find that reheat and eat meals are great for lunches but we often prefer a hot, freshly cooked meal for dinners so these 30 Whole30 Sheet Pan Meals work great for both situations.

FAQs

Do you cover sheet pan meals with foil? ›

Foil to cover the pan when baking if needed. Use parchment paper instead of foil if your purpose is to keep the bottom of the pan cleaner. Wouldn't the oil, grease (if cooking meat), etc.

How long do sheet pan meals take to cook? ›

Temperatures range from 375-400°F for sheet pan meals. Depending on the vegetables and protein you've chosen, it may take anywhere from 35-45 minutes to cook thoroughly. Remember if you've chosen something you know will overcook in that period, you want to add it in later on in the cooking time.

What size pan for sheet pan dinners? ›

Buy a Commercial-Grade Half Sheet-Pan

The standard size for a half sheet-pan (or “rimmed baking sheet”) is 13"x18". All of the sheet-pan dinners we develop in the Test Kitchen are developed to fit perfectly on that size pan—try making one of those recipes on a smaller jelly roll pan or cookie sheet and it won't work.

How do you make a sheet pan for dinner? ›

A sheet pan takes the concept of a one-pot meal and flips it onto a pan. It saves time, makes clean-up easier, and doesn't require expensive equipment or fancy ingredients. Just start with your protein of choice, then add vegetables, fat and flavorings, and roast at high heat until everything is golden brown.

Can I use parchment paper for sheet pan dinners? ›

Lining the pan

Cleanup is a breeze when you line the baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

Can you prep sheet pan meals ahead of time? ›

You can also prep components ahead and store in the fridge for up to 5 days, making it even easier! Sheet pan chicken fajitas with tender and juicy chicken, bell peppers, and onions tossed in a delicious homemade fajita seasoning. Ideal for meal prep or for a simple weeknight dinner.

How many sheet pans do I need? ›

I recommend starting with two half-sheet pans and one quarter-sheet pan, but I've discovered that, like gas expanding to fill the space it's in, no matter how many sheet pans I have — six half-sheets and two quarter-sheets, if we're counting — I could always use at least one more.

Should you preheat a sheet pan? ›

Without preheating the baking sheet, ingredients that contain a lot of moisture will essentially start to steam in their own juices before they roast, softening and never quite developing that crispy exterior you want.

Can you deglaze a sheet pan? ›

It was, admittedly, a somewhat fussy extra step, but it didn't require any extra cookware, and deglazing the baking sheet gets you that much closer to cleaning it anyway. Plus, I wanted to see if it could be done. The answer was yes, and it opens up a fun avenue for future sheet-pan exploration.

How do you keep sheet pan dinners from getting soggy? ›

When food items are super close together or touching on a pan, the moisture they emit during the cooking process causes them to steam one another...which is not what we're going for. Keep each of the food pieces at least an inch apart so that the hot air can circulate well and create a lovely, crispy exterior.

How many people does a sheet pan feed? ›

A full-sized sheet cake pan will produce 117 2" x 2" pieces. Is your pan smaller? No worries — we did the math for you. A half-sized sheet pan will make 58 servings and a quarter-sized pan will make 30 servings.

What is the difference between a sheet pan and a baking tray? ›

Cookie Sheet vs.

Baking sheet pans have rolled edges with a lip around the entire pan, whereas cookie sheets do not. Baking sheets are often used for roasting and other savory preparations. Baking sheets can also be used for very shallow cakes, like those used for jelly rolls. Baking sheets can be used for cookies.

How many servings in a sheet pan? ›

A full-sheet cake (18 x 24 inches, requiring approximately 16 cups of batter) serves up to 80 people. Meanwhile, 1/2 sheet cake (18 x 12 inches and using 7 to 8 cups of batter) should be enough for 36-48 guests. And the smallest option, 1/4 sheet cake (9 x 13 inches, up to 4 cups of batter), can feed 20-24 people.

What does Ina Garten use sheet pans for? ›

Ina's Answer: I use aluminum sheet pans that you can buy at any cookware store. If any food is baked on after I use them, I put them in the sink with the hottest tap water and soap and let them soak overnight. The next morning they should come out perfectly clean, using a Brillo pad if necessary.

What is cooked in a sheet pan? ›

Here are a few recipe ideas to inspire your sheet pan cooking adventures:
  1. Sheet Pan Nachos with Greek Yogurt-Lime Crema.
  2. Sheet Pan Salmon with Roasted Vegetables.
  3. Sheet Pan Chicken Thighs with Sweet Potatoes and Brussels Sprouts.
  4. Sheet Pan Gnocchi & Brussels Sprouts with Lemon.

Do you cover a tray bake with foil? ›

Very often when baking on a tray cooks will cover the tray with parchment paper, foil or a silicone mat. There are 2 main purposes for this. First, if baking cookies or foods that might stick to the tray, the food will release more easily.

Should I cover a baking sheet in foil? ›

Aluminum foil is safe for oven use, making it great for lining baking sheets. But you should not line the bottom of the oven with foil to catch spills and drips because it can melt in high heat and damage the oven.

Should I cover my casserole with foil? ›

Cover dishes

Covering dishes with aluminum foil during a bake helps lock in moisture. Loosely placing or tenting a sheet of foil over a dish can prevent the top from browning while the rest of your dish continues to bake.

Can you cover a pan with aluminum foil while cooking? ›

Foil. A double sheet of foil works well as a lid when you need a closer fit than a sheet pan or a frying pan would provide. It's a little more difficult to manipulate than a lid, but it traps heat and moisture just as effectively.
