The pan I'm talking about is the one in which you finish the pasta. Years ago I cooked in an Italian restaurant in New York City where I worked the pasta station. We finished all the pastas in aluminum pans large and deep enough to contain several servings of pasta and sauce with enough room to. I love Chef John and I love one-pan dishes but I found this underwhelming.

Like a lot of good fast recipes it relies on sausage as "spice shortcut" because the spicy Italian sausage already has many spices blended in. Anyway, this blessedly easy sheet pan meal is way up there on the list for me. Sometimes I forget there's chicken involved and I eat all the veggies! Shake the pan a couple of times while it's cooking to keep things from sticking/burning. Sprinkle the chicken with a little parsley, then.
