Sheet Pan Chicken & Cabbage Stir Fry
This stir fry is actually made on a sheet pan and it’s fully loaded with veggies! Top with sriracha before serving and you’re going to be oh so very happy with this light but very satisfying meal.
When I first set out to do a cabbage stir fry I did it on the stove top and, friends, that’s just not my favorite way to cook cabbage. It ends up a little too wilted and soggy for this gal’s taste. Now roasting your cabbage in the oven is a whole other story. Why anyone prepares cabbage any other way I’ll never understand. In the oven you’ll get crispy bits of cabbage that are so dang good. I could eat an entire pan all by myself. And I definitely have. (Reserve your judgment. It’s cabbage.) My love for roasted cabbage is real.
Naturally this led me to the decision to make this stir fry in the oven. I paired cabbage with two other veggies I know do beautifully in the oven: broccoli and brussels sprouts. Both are chopped fairly small so they don’t overpower the dish.
What else contributes to the success of this recipe? Thin strips of chicken, seasonings, garlic, onion, and coconut aminos all work their magic for a very filling but totally veggie-filled meal. Of course let’s not forget that sriracha drizzle too!
To accommodate all this goodness you’ll need a large sheet pan. Mine is 12 x 17. If you don’t have one that size I recommend getting one (I have three this size) because it’s really the best size for sheet pan dinners. You can always split up your ingredients into two smaller pans if that’s your preference though.

Amazing! A hit with our 8 & 10 year olds as well!
My husband and I started the Whole 30 again and this is the 4th recipe of yours we have tried, the entire family has enjoyed each one! Thank you so much for sharing them and for creating yummy dinners we can eat as a family. I’m enjoying not making separate meals.
I’m lucky to have found your site! Keep ’em coming!
I’m so happy you’re enjoying the recipes! Makes my day! <3
What are coconut aminos? Are they necessary for the recipe, or are they added for nutritional value?
Coconut Aminos are an alternative for soy sauce. They have a lot less sodium and a milder flavor. I love the stuff and it’s definitely necessary!
What if you don’t have the coconut amino? What to do?
This recipe was so quick& easy – I love that aspect of preparing nutritional meals!
In the recipe it says “taste” so I did. It was perfect. I tasted again & it was deliciously (is that a word?!) perfect. I had to put it in meal prep containers & refrigerate immediately, otherwise I WOULD HAVE EATEN THE ENTIRE THING STANDING AT THE STOVE — yes it is that good!!!!!!
Great! Easy, tasty . I used Bragg’s liquid aminos and red hot sauce mixed together, brushing on and roasting for 5 min more. Thank you!
I have renamed this “Everything but the kitchen sink chicken”, bc I often have lots of cruciferous vegetables leftover, and can make this with what I have. So good , yet so simple.
This was such an easy dish but the flavor was amazing!! My family loved it!! I will be making this again!!
So good! We love this meal, quick, flavor full! I make a Christina recipe about 4 out of the 7 days a week!
