A nutritious twist on classic chicken parmesan, featuring roasted red potatoes and fresh green beans, making it perfect for a healthy weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 lb chicken breast (1-inch thickness)
  • 1/3 cup grated parmesan
  • 1/3 cup Italian breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 lbs red potatoes (cut into halves)
  • 1 lb green beans (fresh with ends cut)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, toss together the halved potatoes, 2 tablespoons olive oil, minced garlic, kosher salt, and black pepper. Spread this mixture over one-third of the baking sheet.
  3. Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until they begin to soften.
  4. While the potatoes are roasting, take another bowl and coat the chicken breast with the grated parmesan, breadcrumbs, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper, ensuring an even layer.
  5. Once the potatoes have softened, move them to one side of the baking sheet and add the coated chicken breast.
  6. In the same bowl, toss the green beans with a drizzle of olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper, then add them to the baking sheet.
  7. Roast everything for about 25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  8. For extra crispy potatoes, switch your oven to broil mode for an additional 4-5 minutes.
  9. Allow the dish to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

For a more pronounced flavor, marinate the chicken in olive oil and garlic for a couple of hours before preparing. Avoid overcrowding the pan to keep potatoes crispy.
