Rye Free Pesto-Walnut Sheet-Pan Chicken with Broccoli & Carrots

Sheet-pan dinners are a weeknight lifesaver, and this one delivers serious flavor with almost no cleanup. A vibrant walnut pesto — built from fresh basil, raw walnuts, garlic, and bright lemon juice — gets pressed right onto the chicken before it roasts, forming a fragrant, slightly caramelized crust that makes every bite feel a little special. The broccoli and carrot coins roast alongside, picking up those gorgeous charred edges that turn even picky vegetable skeptics into believers. Because every ingredient here is naturally grain-free, there's zero need to scrutinize labels or swap anything out — the whole dish is built clean from the start. The staggered roasting method means the carrots get a head start, so everything finishes at the same time without any guesswork. A squeeze of lemon and a handful of torn basil at the end keeps it fresh and bright. It's the kind of meal that looks and tastes like you put in way more effort than you actually did.
