I will give you a little bit of a background as to how I came up with this recipe. I am not a chef nor an expert of anything related to food. All I know is that I learned how to love cooking and I’m really adventurous when it comes to food. I like to try different foods from different cultures so I like to watch cooking shows and browse Pinterest to look for new and easy recipes that I can try. Since I do these things, I learn how to recreate the recipes that I find from these platforms to make them my own. My One Sheet Pan Chicken with Potatoes is one of them!
This chicken recipe was inspired by my two favorite recipes that I found from watching the show, The Kitchen and Valerie’s Home Cooking, which are Salt Potatoes with Butter and Chives and Sheet Pan Vinegar Chicken. When I first saw these two recipes, I was immediately interested and I wanted to try them both because each is easy to prepare and really look delicious. In the end, I was right they are easy and delicious recipes and since then, they have become family staples.
On a fairly regular basis, we will host a simple family gathering in our house and most of the time, I will serve meals that I recently discovered. The tradition of serving meals that my in-laws have never tried before was started when I cooked a meal for them for the first time and I served the famous Filipino Chicken Adobo. I was so surprised that they liked it! Since then, every time I find a new recipe and we like it, that recipe will be soon served at upcoming family gatherings and the salt potatoes and sheet pan vinegar chicken recipes is one of them.
In one of our family gatherings, I decided to serve the sheet pan vinegar chicken together with salt potatoes and some roasted vegetables because I wanted it to be a healthy but low carb meal at the same time. It was a perfect combination because my family really enjoyed their food without feeling guilty. After that, whenever I cook Sheet Pan Vinegar Chicken, I always served it with Salt Potatoes. That’s when an idea came into my mind to combine these two recipes into one. I started experimenting in the kitchen and that is how my One Sheet Chicken with Potatoes recipe was born!
