Ingredients
For the Chicken
-
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
-
2 teaspoons garlic powder
-
1 teaspoon dried oregano
-
1 teaspoon paprika
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
½ teaspoon black pepper
For the Veggies
-
1 lb baby potatoes, halved
-
1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
-
1 teaspoon garlic powder
-
1 teaspoon dried thyme (or Italian seasoning)
-
Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
-
Preheat Oven – Set your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with oil.
-
Season Chicken – Rub chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
-
Prepare Potatoes – In a bowl, toss potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Spread them evenly on the baking sheet. Roast for 20 minutes.
-
Add Chicken & Beans – Remove the sheet from the oven. Push potatoes to one side, place seasoned chicken in the center, and add green beans to the other side. Drizzle beans with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper.
-
Bake Together – Return to oven and bake 20–25 minutes, until chicken reaches an internal temp of 165°F (75°C) and potatoes are golden.
-
Serve & Enjoy – Let chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve everything straight from the pan for an easy family meal.
Tips for Success
-
For extra crispy potatoes, roast them 10 minutes longer before adding chicken and beans.
-
Swap chicken breasts with thighs for juicier meat.
-
Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before serving for brightness.
