Parmesan Chicken Potatoes (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Chicken Ingredients

01 - 4 chicken breasts, no skin or bones (or thighs for more flavor)
02 - 1 teaspoon of mixed Italian herbs
03 - 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika for a hint of smoke
04 - 1/2 teaspoon fine salt
05 - 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
06 - 1 tablespoon of olive oil

→ Potato Mix

07 - 1.5 pounds baby potatoes (Yukon Gold or red work best), cut in half
08 - 3 tablespoons olive oil
09 - 4 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
10 - 1/3 cup of freshly shredded Parmesan
11 - 1/2 teaspoon salt for seasoning
12 - 1/4 teaspoon pepper to taste

→ Chopped Garnish

13 - 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped finely

# Instructions:

01 - Turn your oven up to 400°F (200°C). Use parchment paper to line your baking sheet, or drizzle it with a bit of oil if that's what you prefer.
02 - Use paper towels to dry the chicken—this makes the spices stick better. In a small bowl, combine the Italian herbs, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Drizzle the chicken with olive oil, rubbing the seasoning evenly on all sides.
03 - In a mixing bowl, toss the halved potatoes well with olive oil. Stir in the minced garlic, shredded Parmesan, salt, and black pepper. Make sure the potatoes are fully covered in the mixture.
04 - Place the seasoned chicken on one half of your sheet pan, leaving space between each piece. Spread your potatoes on the other half, cut-side facing down to make them crispy.
05 - Pop the pan in your preheated oven and roast it for 25–30 minutes. Flip the potatoes halfway through so they brown evenly. The chicken is cooked when its center is 165°F (74°C)—use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
06 - During the last 5 minutes, sprinkle extra Parmesan over your chicken and potatoes. For a golden crust, switch to broil and watch closely so it doesn't burn.
07 - Take your pan out of the oven and scatter the chopped fresh parsley over everything. Serve while hot, straight from the pan onto plates.

# Notes:

01 - One pan cleans up easily and still gives huge flavor
02 - Try tossing in veggies like cherry tomatoes or asparagus during the last 10 minutes
