Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Lightly grease a large baking dish or sheet with olive oil or cooking spray.
Wash and cut the baby potatoes in half. Peel and chop the carrots into bite-sized chunks. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a seasoning blend.
Place the chicken breasts in the baking dish and brush them generously with the seasoning mixture.
Add the potatoes, carrots, and broccoli florets around the chicken in the dish. Drizzle the remaining seasoning mixture over the vegetables, tossing to coat them evenly.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
After 25 minutes, remove the foil and sprinkle grated parmesan cheese over the vegetables if desired. Return the dish to the oven and bake uncovered for another 20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F) and the vegetables are tender.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve the chicken and vegetable bake warm, either on its own or alongside a fresh green salad or crusty bread.
