FAQs

How big of a sheet pan for sheet pan dinners? ›

Buy a Commercial-Grade Half Sheet-Pan

The standard size for a half sheet-pan (or “rimmed baking sheet”) is 13"x18". All of the sheet-pan dinners we develop in the Test Kitchen are developed to fit perfectly on that size pan—try making one of those recipes on a smaller jelly roll pan or cookie sheet and it won't work.

How long do you bake sheet pan dinners? ›

Temperatures range from 375-400°F for sheet pan meals. Depending on the vegetables and protein you've chosen, it may take anywhere from 35-45 minutes to cook thoroughly. Remember if you've chosen something you know will overcook in that period, you want to add it in later on in the cooking time.

Can I use parchment paper for sheet pan dinners? ›

Lining the pan

Cleanup is a breeze when you line the baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

What is the basic of sheet pan cooking? ›

A sheet pan takes the concept of a one-pot meal and flips it onto a pan. It saves time, makes clean-up easier, and doesn't require expensive equipment or fancy ingredients. Just start with your protein of choice, then add vegetables, fat and flavorings, and roast at high heat until everything is golden brown.

How many servings in a full sheet pan? ›

Generally, a full-size sheet pan will give you around 117 small servings and a half-sheet has about 58. For the Love of Cake!

How many sheet pans do I need? ›

I recommend starting with two half-sheet pans and one quarter-sheet pan, but I've discovered that, like gas expanding to fill the space it's in, no matter how many sheet pans I have — six half-sheets and two quarter-sheets, if we're counting — I could always use at least one more.

Do you cover sheet pan meals with foil? ›

We recommend foil over parchment paper for sheet pan cooking. As it conducts heat, foil can help accelerate the cooking process and help browning.

Can you prep sheet pan meals ahead of time? ›

Here, you'll assemble dinner components in reusable containers or zip-top bags so during the week all you need to do is dump everything on sheet pan, maybe toss with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper, and then bake. You'll also be ready to tackle the week with simple, ready-to-eat breakfast and lunch options.

What to cook a sheet pan dinner at? ›

A sheet pan meal is a full meal – protein and vegetable or vegetables– cooked together on a sheet pan in a hot oven, typically 425° F. The food combos are endless, but the recipes share a few attributes. They are fairly low fat, come together within an hour, and dirty just one pan.

When should you not use parchment paper for baking? ›

Parchment paper is not designed for high-heat cooking. Avoid using it in your oven or on the grill if temperature will exceed 400 degrees, says Michelle Weaver, chef at Charleston Grill in South Carolina, as there's a chance it could catch fire.

What side of parchment paper do you cook on? ›

Since parchment paper doesn't have a helpful “this end up” sign with an arrow, it takes a little detective work. Just hold the paper up to the light and look for the side that's slightly glossier or shinier. It is the shiny or glossy side of the parchment paper that should be face up on your baking sheet or cake pan.

Can you put two sheet pans in the oven? ›

If you have two sheet pans on separate racks inside your oven, you should also switch them so that the lower rack doesn't get more heat than the higher rack.

Can you cook directly on a sheet pan? ›

You don't really need to line the pan

There is a time and a place to use parchment paper or silicone baking mats—and in most cases, it has to do with dessert. But if your meal is on the savory side, skip the Silpat.

What is the difference between a baking sheet and a sheet pan? ›

Although cookie sheets are often referred to as "baking sheets," there are differences between a cookie sheet and a baking sheet (also known as a baking sheet pan or simply a sheet pan): Baking sheet pans have rolled edges with a lip around the entire pan, whereas cookie sheets do not.

What is the best size sheet pan? ›

Typically, we recommend a half-sheet pan, or half-size sheet pan, which is about 18x13" and is big enough for most home cooks but small enough to fit easily into your apartment oven.

What is a 1 4 sheet pan used for? ›

They're great for cooking for one, too, and can accommodate a single serving of protein for baking or roasting in the oven (or toaster oven!). I also like to use one to toast a handful of croutons for a single-serving salad.

Will a full sheet pan fit in a standard oven? ›

Full Size Sheet Pans – the commercial full sized sheet pan is 18” x 26” and for any home cooking enthusiasts that are shopping commercial restaurant supplies, it's critical to know that this pan will not fit in a residential oven.

How many servings in a 1 4 sheet pan? ›

Quarter-sheet or ¼-sheet cakes are more than enough for family occasions, small parties, intimate gatherings, etc., yielding 20-24 portions.
