Sheet pan cooking deserves its all-star reputation as a minimal-mess, big-flavor way to cook. Presentation at the table impresses, too.

These all-in-one pan meals primarily feature boneless proteins, such as fish fillets, sausage, chicken breasts, and shrimp, so they cook in roughly the same time as the vegetables that get added to the pan.
