Ingredients
Scale
1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into 1.5-inch pieces
1.5 lbs small potatoes (like Yukon Gold or red potatoes), quartered
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a large bowl, toss the quartered potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Roast the potatoes for 15 minutes while you prepare the chicken mixture.
In the same bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning. Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and toss until they are fully coated in the garlic Parmesan mixture.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Push the partially cooked potatoes to one side of the sheet. Arrange the coated chicken pieces in a single layer on the empty side of the sheet.
Return the sheet pan to the oven and bake for an additional 18 to 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit) and the potatoes are tender and slightly crispy.
Remove from the oven. Sprinkle the fresh chopped parsley over the chicken and potatoes before serving immediately.
Notes
For extra crispy potatoes, ensure they are dry before tossing them with oil and seasoning.
If you prefer using chicken thighs, they may require 2-3 minutes longer cooking time than breasts.
You can add quick-cooking vegetables like broccoli florets during the last 10 minutes of baking.
