Sheet-Pan Dinner FAQs
How long do sheet-pan dinners take?
Most sheet-pan dinner recipes are ready to serve in about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the recipe. Hearty root vegetables (like beets, parsnips and sweet potatoes) take longer to cook than thin vegetables (like asparagus, bell peppers and radishes). When it comes to meat, a sheet-pan recipe with fish will cook more quickly than one made with thick cuts of meat like steak, pork chops or whole chicken breasts.
Can I cook directly on a sheet pan?
You can absolutely cook directly on a sheet pan. The key is to treat your sheet pan like any other cooking utensil and coat the pan’s surface with oil or butter so the food doesn’t stick. If you’re concerned about cleanup, you can always line the pan with foil before assembling your ingredients.
Can I use a baking dish for a sheet-pan dinner?
There is a difference between a baking dish and a baking pan, but you may be able to use a baking dish for some sheet-pan dinner recipes. A sheet pan allows food to spread and cook evenly. On the other hand, a baking dish is ideal for recipes where moisture retention is key, as this pan has closed-off edges to prevent evaporation. If you do decide to make a substitution, you may need to adjust the cooking time to ensure the ingredients cook properly.
