Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1-inch cubes)
- 4 medium potatoes (peeled and diced into 1-inch cubes)
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
- 1 lemon (cut into wedges, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray. - Prepare the Potatoes and Chicken:
Place the diced potatoes and chicken cubes in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until the potatoes and chicken are evenly coated with the seasoning and oil. - Arrange on the Baking Sheet:
Spread the seasoned chicken and potatoes evenly on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. This will allow them to cook evenly and crisp up in the oven. - Bake the Dish:
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C) and the potatoes are golden and tender. Halfway through the cooking time, stir the potatoes and chicken to ensure even browning. - Serve:
Once done, remove from the oven. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side, if desired. Enjoy your delicious, easy one-pan dinner!
Notes
- You can substitute the chicken breasts with chicken thighs for a juicier, more flavorful dish.
- For added flavor, sprinkle the dish with grated Parmesan cheese during the last 5 minutes of baking.
- Add some vegetables like bell peppers or carrots to the dish for extra nutrition and color.
- Feel free to adjust the seasonings to your taste or add your favorite herbs like rosemary or oregano.
