What’s on the Sheet Pan
- Chicken breasts coated in olive oil, parmesan, breadcrumbs, garlic, salt, and pepper.
- Quartered red potatoes tossed with garlic, olive oil, parmesan, salt, and pepper.
- Fresh green beans seasoned with garlic, olive oil, and optional parmesan.
Tip: You can swap green beans for broccoli or another favorite vegetable if desired.
Ingredients
- Chicken breasts: 3–4 pieces, pounded to even thickness for uniform cooking.
- Red potatoes: Quartered; baby potatoes or gold potatoes work too.
- Green beans: Fresh is best; frozen or canned can be substituted but adjust cooking time.
- Olive oil: Extra-virgin preferred.
- Garlic: Fresh cloves deliver the best flavor.
- Parmesan cheese: Freshly grated adheres best, but shredded works.
- Breadcrumbs: Plain or Italian; use gluten-free if desired.
- Salt & pepper: Adjust to taste.
Instructions
- Preheat oven: 425°F (220°C).
- Prep potatoes: Toss potatoes with olive oil, garlic, parmesan, salt, and pepper. Spread on one-third of a large sheet pan and bake for 15 minutes.
- Prep chicken: Mix chicken with olive oil, parmesan, breadcrumbs, garlic, salt, and pepper. Add to the sheet pan beside the partially cooked potatoes.
- Prep green beans: Toss green beans with garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, and optional parmesan. Add to the final third of the pan.
- Bake: Cook for 25 minutes more, until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) internally. For extra crispy potatoes, broil 3–4 minutes at the end. Remove green beans early if needed.
- Rest and serve: Let chicken rest 5 minutes before serving.
Tips for Success
- Chicken thickness matters: Large breasts may need extra baking time; pound to 1-inch thickness for even cooking.
- Crispy bottoms: Use a rack if desired to keep moisture off the chicken.
- Extra flavor: Add Italian seasoning, oregano, or other herbs to taste.
Storage & Reheating
- Fridge: Store in airtight containers for 3–4 days. Keep ingredients separate or portion into meals.
- Freezer: Cool completely, then freeze up to 3 months in airtight containers.
- Reheat: Air fryer for 4–5 minutes at 350°F for crispiness, bake at 350°F for 8–10 minutes, or microwave 1.5–2 minutes. Thaw frozen meals for best results.
