# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 400°F. On a large baking sheet, combine 1 1/2 lbs baby Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces, and 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs. This sets the stage for your delicious One-Pan Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Potatoes.
02 -
In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp olive oil, 4 cloves garlic (minced), 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 1/2 tsp dried Italian seasoning, 1 tsp smoked paprika, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (if using). Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
03 -
Pour the garlic-Parmesan mixture over the chicken and potatoes on the baking sheet. Toss everything thoroughly with your hands or tongs until both the chicken and potatoes are evenly coated. Spread them in a single layer for optimal cooking.
04 -
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature 165°F) and the potatoes are tender and golden brown. For the best One-Pan Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Potatoes, flip the chicken and potatoes halfway through cooking.
05 -
Once cooked, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Drizzle the entire dish with 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice. Garnish generously with 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped, for a vibrant finish.
06 -
Let the One-Pan Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Potatoes rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices in the chicken to redistribute, ensuring a more tender and flavorful meal. Serve hot and enjoy!
# Notes:
01 -
For extra crispy potatoes and chicken, ensure your baking sheet isn't overcrowded. Use two baking sheets if necessary to give everything enough space to roast properly.
02 -
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave.
03 -
Feel free to add other quick-cooking vegetables like broccoli florets or bell peppers during the last 15-20 minutes of baking for added color and nutrition.
04 -
This dish is a complete meal on its own, but pairs wonderfully with a simple green salad or some crusty bread to soak up the delicious pan juices.
