Life is SO busy this time of year. For me, and for every other family I know. Back to school routines take a while to get used to, as do homework, changing work schedules, and the days getting shorter. If you feel like you’re short on time and energy to get dinner on the table during the week…well you’re not the only one! I always like to share a recipe or two this time of year for the days that are time-crunched. One pot, slow cooker, or sheet pan recipes are so amazing for those weeknights when you just can’t do another thing. Today I thought I would share my recipe for One-Pan Garlic Maple Dijon Chicken!
This recipe is one of my favorites because it’s seasonal, delicious, and most importantly: family-friendly! I love using maple syrup in recipes this time of year because it’s easy to find locally and SO delicious. Paired with Fall veggies, and this is truly a seasonal dish. I’ll admit that I’m not the biggest chicken fan– even though my kids love it– but I LOVE this dish. The marinade is awesome, and the whole thing feels wholesome and healthy. My kids gobble this up. I usually try to make enough that I can save some for lunch the next day!
I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do, and that it helps make dinner time a bit easier. One sheet pan to clean is my kinda cleanup!
Ingredients…
(Serves 4)
- 4 Chicken Thighs
- ⅓ cup Maple Syrup
- ⅓ cup Dijon
- 1½ lbs Butternut Squash, peeled and cubed
- 3 cups Brussels Sprouts, halved

Step by Step…

- Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper and set aside.

- Dip your butternut squash in the same maple dijon mixture, mix to coat, and add to the baking sheet around the chicken.
- In another bowl, add your Brussels sprouts, olive oil, and salt, and mix to combine. Then add them to the baking sheet around the chicken.
