When I started cooking professionally – teaching classes and catering small events – I invested in a half dozen heavy duty rimmed stainless sheet pans. They are one of the most versatile things to have in the kitchen, and essential if you want to hop on the “sheet pan dinner” craze.
There’s nothing magical about cooking food on a sheet pan – all it takes is a little creativity and some thinking about cooking times of the various foods to get it right. In this recipe, the edges of radicchio wilt and caramelize along with the shallots while the chicken thighs cook, and the flavors are fantastic together.
