Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breast
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 4 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 6 medium Red potatoes, quartered
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, 1 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper.
Add the chicken breasts to the bowl and toss to coat them thoroughly. Let them marinate while you prepare the potatoes.
In another bowl, combine the quartered red potatoes with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 0.5 teaspoons of salt, and the grated Parmesan cheese.
Place the marinated chicken breasts in a single layer on one side of a large rimmed baking sheet, and arrange the seasoned potatoes on the other side.
Roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the potatoes are golden and fork-tender.
Sprinkle the freshly chopped parsley over the potatoes before serving.
Serve the roasted chicken alongside the herbed potatoes while hot.
