Tips for Perfect Sheet Pan Dinners
- Preheat your oven and your sheet pan. It cooks everything more evenly and keeps your vegetables from turning soggy.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan. Too many ingredients means they’ll steam instead of roast, and you’ll lose out on those crispy edges.
- Cut your ingredients into uniform sizes so everything finishes cooking at the same time.
