How to Make One-Pan Garlic Herb Chicken with Roasted Potatoes & Green Beans

Ingredients:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 lb baby potatoes, halved
1 lb green beans, trimmed
4 tbsp olive oil (divided)
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (or 1 tsp dried)
1 tsp thyme
1 tsp rosemary
1 tsp paprika
Salt and pepper, to taste
Juice of 1/2 lemon (optional for brightness)

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large sheet pan.
In a bowl, mix 2 tbsp olive oil, garlic, parsley, thyme, rosemary, paprika, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken breasts with this mixture.
Toss the halved potatoes in 1 tbsp olive oil, and season them with salt, pepper, and a pinch of rosemary. Arrange the potatoes on one side of the pan.
Add the marinated chicken next to the potatoes. Roast uncovered for 20 minutes.
Toss the green beans with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Add them to the pan and roast for another 15–20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature should be 165°F) and the potatoes are golden.
Optionally, drizzle lemon juice over the top before serving. Garnish with extra parsley for a nice touch.
