Ingredients

  • 3-4 chicken breasts boneless, skinless
  • 1 lb baby red potatoes halved
  • 12 cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes
  • 1 lemon sliced into rings
  • 4 tsp garlic minced
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 3 sprigs fresh rosemary optional
  • 3/4 lb green beans trimmed
  • fresh parsley for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F and set your oven rack to the top half. Set aside a large baking sheet.
  • Scatter potatoes and tomatoes across the baking sheet. Add chicken breasts in the middle a few inches apart. Rub chicken breasts with 1 tablespoon oil.
  • Sprinkle minced garlic, oregano and thyme across pan. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Drizzle the rest of olive oil evenly across. Toss to mix well. Place several lemon slices on top of chicken.
  • Butter a piece of parchment paper, and cover the chicken and vegetables with buttered parchment paper (butter side facing down)
  • Bake for 22 to 25 minutes, adding green beans for the final 10 minutes. If the chicken looks pale, you can always put it under the broiler for the final 3 minutes.
  • Check doneness by inserting an instant-read thermometer into the middle of the chicken breast. Remove from the oven as soon as it reaches 160°F (71°C). Alternatively, as soon as clear juice starts to seep out of your chicken breasts, it means that they are cooked through.
  • Remove the chicken to a serving plate or carving board. Cover with foil and let it rest for 5-10 minutes to let the juices redistribute through the meat before serving.

Notes

  • Smaller chicken breasts (4 oz) need to be baked for 18-20 minutes, while larger chicken breasts (8-10 oz) will take 25-30 minutes to bake.
  • Add 8-10 minutes of additional baking time if you use bone-in chicken breasts.
  • Remove chicken from the oven when the internal temperature reaches 160°F, as the temperature will rise a few degrees during resting.
  • Use leftover baked chicken to make Chicken Avocado RollupsChicken Noodle Soup and Chicken Fried Rice. Cooked chicken lasts 3-4 days in the fridge.
