Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Coating Ingredients:
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- Salt
- Pepper
Vegetables and Seasonings:
- 3 cups baby potatoes
- 2 cups green beans
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt
- Pepper
Instructions
- Warm your oven to 400F and arrange a sheet pan with parchment paper. Grab your favorite olive oil to prep surfaces.
- Quarter 3 cups of baby potatoes and tumble them with 1 tablespoon olive oil, half the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Spread them across one side of your sheet pan.
- Mix ½ cup mayonnaise with ½ cup Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, and ½ teaspoon paprika in a separate bowl. Season 4 chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Coat each chicken breast generously with the Parmesan mixture, ensuring complete coverage. Position the breasts centrally on the sheet pan.
- Trim 2 cups of green beans and toss them with remaining olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Arrange the beans beside the potatoes on the sheet pan.
- Slide the sheet pan into the 400F oven and roast for 35-40 minutes. Check that chicken reaches 165F internal temperature and potatoes turn golden and crisp.
- Remove the pan from the oven and allow everything to rest for 5 minutes. Serve directly from the pan for minimal cleanup.
Notes
- Check chicken doneness precisely with a meat thermometer to avoid overcooking and drying out the meat.
- Pat chicken breasts dry before seasoning to help the Parmesan mixture adhere better and create a crispy crust.
- Use fresh green beans for the best texture and flavor, trimming ends before seasoning.
- For a gluten-free version, ensure your Parmesan cheese and seasonings are certified gluten-free and substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt if needed.
