07 -
1½ lbs of Yukon Gold or red baby potatoes, cut in half
08 -
Three tablespoons of olive oil

4 minced garlic cloves

⅓ cup of finely grated Parmesan
11 -
Half a teaspoon of salt

¼ tsp of black pepper powder
→ Toppings (Optional)
13 -
1 tbsp of fresh parsley, finely chopped
# Instructions:
01 -
Turn your oven on to 400°F (200°C). Use parchment paper or lightly oil a big baking sheet to prepare it.
02 -
Use paper towels to pat the chicken until it’s dry. Mix together the paprika, salt, Italian spices, and pepper in a bowl. Brush olive oil over the chicken and then coat it with the seasoning mix.
03 -
In a roomy bowl, mix the potato halves with Parmesan, minced garlic, oil, salt, and pepper. Make sure every piece is well covered.
04 -
Lay the chicken on one side of your baking tray. Add the potatoes on the other side, keeping them in one layer so they cook evenly.
05 -
Roast everything for 25-30 minutes in your preheated oven. Flip the potatoes over roughly halfway through. Use a thermometer to make sure the chicken hits 165°F (74°C).
06 -
For the last 5 minutes, sprinkle some extra Parmesan over the chicken and potatoes. Put under the broiler for a crispy, golden top.
07 -
Take it out of the oven, sprinkle chopped parsley on top, and serve right away!
# Notes:
01 -
This makes a great choice for a quick dinner and can work with added sides like green veggies.
02 -
The chicken should reach 165°F (74°C) to ensure it’s safe to eat.
03 -
For an added zing, drizzle a bit of lemon juice before serving.
