Monday
Meal: Sheet-Pan Roasted Chicken Thighs with Butternut Squash and Sweet Onions
Description: Crisp-skinned-style boneless chicken thighs roast on one pan with caramelized butternut cubes and sweet onion wedges. The squash turns tender and sweet while the onions soften into jammy edges, making an easy cozy dinner for two.
Sale items used: Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs ($3.19/lb), Butternut Squash ($0.99/lb), Bulk Sweet Onions ($1.29/lb)
Prep time: 50 minutes
Serving note: Use about 1.25 lbs of chicken thighs (4 to 5 thighs), 1.5 lbs butternut squash (about 4 cups cubed), and 1 large sweet onion cut into wedges. Toss with 2 tbsp oil, salt, pepper, paprika and garlic powder. Roast at 425F for 30 to 35 minutes, flipping once. Peel and cube the squash while the oven preheats. Save the other half of the squash for another night, or double the squash for leftovers.
