Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)
  • 1 ½ lbs baby potatoes, halved or quartered
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with olive oil.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, paprika, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
  3. Drizzle olive oil over the chicken breasts, rub it in, and sprinkle half of the seasoning mixture over the chicken. Set aside.
  4. Place halved or quartered baby potatoes on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle the remaining seasoning mixture over the potatoes and toss again.
  5. Make space for the chicken on the baking sheet and place the chicken breasts on top of the potatoes.
  6. Roast for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the potatoes are golden and tender. For extra crispy potatoes, broil for 2-3 minutes at the end of cooking.
  7. Remove from the oven, garnish with freshly chopped parsley, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use bone-in chicken for added flavor, but increase cooking time to 40-45 minutes.
  • Swap regular potatoes with sweet potatoes for a slightly sweeter flavor.
  • Add vegetables like carrots, bell peppers, or onions to the pan for extra color and nutrition.
  • For extra crispy potatoes, broil the pan for 2-3 minutes after roasting.
