  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 1 tsp salt kosher, divided
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper divided
  • 1.5 lb chicken thighs boneless, skinless (about 4)
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese finely grated
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 0.5 tsp paprika

Equipment

  • 1 18x13-inch rimmed baking sheet

Method
 

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Line an 18x13-inch rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Toss the potatoes on the baking sheet with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Spread the potatoes in an even layer.
  5. Roast the potatoes for 20 minutes.
  6. Meanwhile, toss the chicken with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, garlic, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, paprika, and remaining salt and pepper.
  7. Turn the potatoes and arrange the chicken among them on the baking sheet.

  9. Let the chicken rest on the pan for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

For even cooking, cut the potatoes into uniform 1-inch pieces. Refrigerate leftovers for 3 to 4 days or freeze them for up to 3 months. For a dairy-free option, use a dairy-free Parmesan alternative.
