Ingredients
-
2–3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
-
2 tablespoons olive oil (for chicken)
-
3 garlic cloves, minced
-
1 teaspoon dried oregano
-
1 teaspoon dried thyme
-
1 teaspoon dried basil
-
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
-
1 tablespoon lemon juice or zest
-
1 pound baby or gold potatoes, halved
-
1 tablespoon olive oil (for potatoes)
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
-
½ teaspoon dried oregano or Italian seasoning
-
¾ pound fresh green beans, trimmed
-
1 tablespoon olive oil (for green beans)
-
1 garlic clove, minced (optional)
-
Salt, to taste
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large baking dish or line with parchment paper.
-
Toss halved potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and dried oregano. Arrange on one side of the pan.
-
In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, oregano, thyme, basil, lemon juice or zest, salt, and pepper. Rub mixture onto chicken breasts.
-
After the potatoes have baked for 10 minutes, push them to one side and place the seasoned chicken in the center of the pan.
-
Return the pan to the oven and roast for 15 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, toss green beans with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and garlic if desired.
-
Add green beans to the other side of the pan. Continue roasting for 15–20 minutes, until chicken is fully cooked (165°F internal temp), potatoes are golden, and beans are tender.
-
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve everything directly from the pan.
Notes
-
For juicier meat, substitute boneless chicken thighs for breasts.
-
Swap green beans for asparagus, broccoli, or zucchini based on the season.
-
For crispier potatoes, parboil them for 5 minutes before roasting.
-
Add red pepper flakes or smoked paprika for extra flavor.
-
Can be meal-prepped and stored in the fridge for up to 4 days.
