Looking for an easy meal that you can make all at once in an hour? This One Pan Chicken Dinner is fabulous!

There’s nothing better than a one pot meal. Wait, there is something better. A one pan meal! One Pan Chicken Dinner is a new addition to our family favorites. It’s one of my favorites because it all cooks in the oven in an hour. I don’t need to make the vegetables on their own, or baked the chicken by itself. I don’t even have to make the rice on the side. Everything cooks together in the casserole pan.

This one pan chicken dinner also looks so lovely. It would be a great meal to make for a fall dinner party.

The vegetables are simple and thrifty. Carrots and onions are always a good price at the grocery store. If carrots aren’t your thing, you could substitute fresh green beans or asparagus, if it’s in season. Don’t like onions? Leave them out. But, I will say, the onions take the dish to another level. The caramelize and flavor the rice just right.

The hour it takes to bake, you could do so much. Watch a show. Take care of homework with the kids. Read a magazine. Talk to a friend about that Real Housewives episode you watched last night. All while your complete dinner is cooking in the oven. Mmmm Hmm. That’s right.
