Ingredients
For the Chicken:
- 1 1/2 lb chicken breast (about 3–4 pieces), approx. 1 inch thick
- 2 T olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/3 c grated parmesan
- 1/3 c breadcrumbs, Italian or plain–can add 1 tsp Italian seasoning to plan breadcrumbs!
- 1/2 tsp cracked pepper
- 1/2 – 3/4 tsp sea salt
For the Potatoes:
- 2 lb red potatoes, cut into bite sized pieces , (if small quartered, larger potatoes will be cut into 6ths or 8ths even)
- 1 – 2 garlic clove, minced
- 2 T olive oil
- 2 T grated parmesan
- salt and pepper to taste
For the Green Beans:
- 1 lb fresh green beans, ends trimmed
- 1 T olive oil
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 T parmesan (optional)
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Step 1: Get the oven ready
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper (because who likes scrubbing baked-on bits?).
Step 2: Roast the potatoes
Toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, parmesan, salt, and pepper. Spread them over one-third of the sheet pan and roast for 10-15 minutes. If you like them extra crispy, let them go the full 15 minutes.
Step 3: Coat the chicken
While the potatoes roast, mix the parmesan, breadcrumbs, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Coat the chicken breasts with olive oil, then press them into the breadcrumb mixture. You want a nice, even layer of coating.
Step 4: Add the chicken to the pan
Take the pan out of the oven, nestle the chicken next to the potatoes, and return it to the oven.
Step 5: Toss the green beans
In the same bowl, mix the green beans with olive oil, garlic, and a sprinkle of parmesan. Once the chicken has been in the oven for about 10 minutes, add the green beans to the empty space on the sheet pan.
Step 6: Bake to perfection
Let everything bake for another 25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches 165°F internally. If you love extra-crispy potatoes, turn on the broiler for the last 4-5 minutes.
Step 7: Serve and enjoy
Let everything rest for a few minutes before digging in. A squeeze of lemon over the chicken makes it even better.
Notes
How to serve it up like a pro
For an extra pop of color, sprinkle fresh chopped parsley over everything before serving. A side of crusty bread and a simple salad would round out the meal beautifully.
