Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 1 ½ lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts large chunks
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for coating
  • 1 teaspoon salt fine grain
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper ground
  • 1 teaspoon paprika smoked preferred
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning dried blend
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder granulated
For the Potatoes
  • 1 ½ lbs baby potatoes halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for coating
  • ½ teaspoon salt fine grain
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper ground
  • ½ teaspoon paprika smoked preferred
  • ½ teaspoon dried parsley for flavor
For the Garlic Parmesan Finish
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • ¾ cup Parmesan cheese freshly grated
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley optional garnish

Equipment

  • Large Baking Dish
  • Mixing bowls
  • Chef Knife
  • Cutting board

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a large baking dish or rimmed sheet pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the chicken chunks with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder until well coated.
  3. In a separate bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and dried parsley.
  4. Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly across the baking dish and nestle the chicken pieces into the spaces between them.
  5. Place the dish in the oven and bake uncovered for 30 minutes, ensuring you stir the potatoes once halfway through for even browning.
  6. While the chicken and potatoes roast, whisk together the melted butter and minced garlic in a small ramekin.
  7. Remove the dish from the oven and drizzle the garlic butter mixture over the top, followed by a generous dusting of Parmesan cheese.
  8. Return the pan to the oven for another 10 to 15 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the potatoes are tender.
  9. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley before serving hot.

Notes

For the best results, ensure your chicken chunks are uniform in size to prevent overcooking. If using Russet potatoes, cut them into 1-inch cubes to match the roasting time of the chicken. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days and reheat in the oven to maintain the texture of the potatoes.
