Ingredients
1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 lb baby potatoes, halved
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, half the minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
Spread the potatoes on a large sheet pan and roast for 15 minutes.
While potatoes roast, toss the chicken pieces in the same bowl with the remaining olive oil, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, and oregano.
Remove the pan from the oven, push potatoes to the sides, and add the chicken in a single layer.
Return the pan to the oven and roast for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender and golden.
Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately.
Notes
Ensure chicken pieces are uniform in size to guarantee even cooking. You can swap baby potatoes for fingerling potatoes if preferred. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
