I love a good one-sheet meal. They truly put the “quick” in #quickpaleomeals! Not only is this easy, delicious family meal a time saver, but I find it to also be budget-friendly using just 3 main ingredients: flavorful chicken thighs, celery ribs and a favorite and cheap root vegetable, carrots!

      how much rosemary should be in the recipe. I do not see it listed.

    • Marilyn says

      I don’t see Rosemary either but I have a great Olive oil infused with Rosemary so I’ll use that and garnish with fresh Rosemary after cooking.
      I wonder if this was supposed to be Lemon chicken??

  • Elizabeth says

    Same. However, seems like one could just add it to the marinade.
