INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 lb boneless chicken breasts
  • Quarter tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley
  • 4 minced garlic cloves
  • 1 lb baby potatoes

  • Half tsp salt
  • Quarter cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Half tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

INGREDIENT NOTES:

CHICKEN BREAST:

  • It includes lean protein and makes the meal filling. Chicken breast cooks evenly when we cut it into equal pieces. You may use chicken thighs as a substitute, but the calories and points will increase.

BABY POTATOES:

  • They give a hearty base to the meal and give crispy edges after roasting. You may use Yukon Gold potatoes as another option.

OLIVE OIL:

  • This oil attaches the seasonings well to the potatoes and chicken. It makes the edges brown while roasting and maintains the points. Utilize avocado oil if you are not using olive oil.

PARMESAN CHEESE:

  • It adds a signature nutty and cheesy taste to the dish. Parmesan cheese makes flavorful edges and becomes lightly browned when we sprinkle it on the chicken and potatoes while roasting. Pecorino Romano is a good alternative to use instead.

LEMON JUICE:

  • This juice adds acidity and freshness to the meal. It maintains the savory parmesan, garlic, and roasted potatoes. You may use lime juice as a replacement.

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. First, preheat the oven to 425°F & include baking paper on the sheet.
  2. Cut the washed potatoes into even quarters so they cook well.
  3. Include the potatoes, half the olive oil, half of the garlic, paprika, salt, onion powder, black pepper, and Italian seasoning in the bowl.
  4. Toss all the ingredients well and spread a single layer of potatoes on the sheet to roast for 15 minutes.
  5. Put the chicken, remaining garlic, and olive oil in the same bowl, then toss.
  6. Take the sheet pan from the oven and turn the potatoes, then place the chicken pieces around them.
  7. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on the chicken and potatoes, then bake the dish for another 20 minutes.
  8. Check that the temperature of the thickest part of the chicken is 165°F.
  9. Lastly, drizzle lemon juice and sprinkle parsley, then cool the dish for 5 minutes and serve.
