Want a healthy one sheet pan dinner ready in under 1 hour? Then I have the perfect recipe for you! This dish is filled with flavour and bursting with healthy goodness. I love making one pan oven roasted chicken dishes. Crispy chicken skin and charred vegetables, low carb and gluten free deliciousness. Perfect for a busy weekday, don’t you think? Just pop it in the oven and it is ready in 30 minutes. Perfect. Make sure you cube the potatoes and butternut squash into 1" cubes so that they cook uniformly.
