🍗 One-Pan Garlic Herb Chicken with Potatoes & Green Beans
Ingredients (Serves 4)
- 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (or breasts)
- Salt & black pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme or Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 lb (450 g) baby potatoes, halved
- 1/2 lb (225 g) green beans, trimmed
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
1️⃣ Prep the chicken
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Pat chicken dry, then season with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and thyme.
2️⃣ Arrange on a baking sheet
- On a large rimmed baking sheet or sheet pan, toss potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer.
- Nestle seasoned chicken pieces among the potatoes.
- Roast 20–25 minutes.
3️⃣ Add green beans and garlic
- Toss green beans with remaining olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper.
- Add green beans to the pan around chicken and potatoes.
- Roast another 10–15 minutes, until chicken reaches an internal temp of 165°F (74°C), potatoes are tender, and green beans are crisp-tender.
4️⃣ Finish and serve
- Drizzle with lemon juice and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
- Serve hot, straight from the pan.
Tips
- Even cooking: Cut potatoes into uniform pieces to cook evenly with chicken.
- Extra flavor: Add halved cherry tomatoes or sliced onions for a colorful addition.
- Crispy skin: Broil for 2–3 minutes at the end for extra golden chicken skin.
