1½ lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
24 oz red potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
4 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, divided
2 tablespoons minced garlic, divided
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F and lightly spray a large sheet pan with non-stick cooking spray.
In a small bowl, combine paprika, garlic salt, onion powder, parsley, and pepper. Divide evenly into two portions of about 1 tablespoon each.
In a mixing bowl, combine potatoes, 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon garlic, and 1 tablespoon spice mixture. Toss to coat evenly.
Spread potatoes on one half of prepared sheet pan in a single layer. Roast at 400°F for 15 minutes.
While potatoes cook, combine chicken pieces with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, 2 tablespoons parmesan, 1 tablespoon garlic, and remaining spice mixture in a separate bowl.
After potatoes have cooked 15 minutes, remove pan and add seasoned chicken to the other half. Return to oven and bake both for 20 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F.
Remove from oven when potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender, and chicken is no longer pink inside. Let cool 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
Cut chicken and potatoes into uniform 1-inch pieces for even cooking. Potatoes go in first because they need extra time to become tender.
Boneless skinless chicken thighs can be substituted for chicken breasts. Freshly grated parmesan melts better than pre-shredded.
Use an 18×13-inch half-sheet pan or larger to ensure ingredients fit in a single layer without crowding.
Store leftovers in airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat in oven at 350°F for 10 minutes for best texture.
