  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients

For the Chicken:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

For the Potatoes:

  • 1.5 pounds baby Yukon Gold or red potatoes, halved
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

For Garnish (optional):

  • Fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Season the Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Rub the seasonings evenly across all surfaces of the chicken.
  3. Prepare the Potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the halved potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are fully coated.
  4. Assemble on Baking Sheet: Arrange the seasoned chicken breasts on one side of the prepared baking sheet. Spread the seasoned potatoes out on the other side, ensuring they are in a single layer for even roasting.
  5. Roast: Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the potatoes are golden and crispy.
  6. Broil and Garnish (Optional): For extra crispiness, broil for an additional 2-5 minutes at the end of baking. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving, if desired.

Notes

  • Swap in chicken thighs for added juiciness if desired.
  • Add chopped vegetables (like carrots or green beans) to the potatoes for more variety.
  • Check chicken temperature with a meat thermometer to avoid overcooking.
  • Parchment paper makes cleanup easy, but you can use foil if you prefer.
  • Leftovers store well in the fridge for up to 3 days.
