Description

How to make flavorful garlic parmesan chicken and crispy roasted potatoes in one pan that your whole family will absolutely love.

Ingredients

Scale
  • Base/Main Components:
  • 1 ½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 ½ lbs Yukon Gold potatoes
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 6 cloves fresh garlic
  • ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • Flavor Builders:
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • Seasonings & Spices:
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Finishing & Toppings:
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prep Potatoes: First, cube your Yukon Gold potatoes into 1-inch pieces and mince the garlic. Toss the potatoes with half the olive oil, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika directly on a baking sheet. This ensures even crisping for your ultimate Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Potatoes One-Pan.
  2. Make Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together melted butter, remaining olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, thyme, Dijon mustard, and chicken broth. This flavorful mixture is the heart of your dish. Add half the Parmesan cheese.
  3. Coat Chicken: Add the chicken thighs to the sauce mixture, ensuring they are fully coated. You want every piece to absorb the delicious flavors. This step is crucial for juicy, tender chicken in this Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Potatoes One-Pan meal.
  4. Bake Dinner: Arrange the seasoned potatoes and sauced chicken on your baking sheet, ensuring everything is in a single layer. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 30-40 minutes, flipping halfway. The potatoes should be golden and tender, and chicken cooked through for your Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Potatoes One-Pan.
  5. Add Cheese: Remove the pan from the oven. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley over the chicken and potatoes. Return to the oven for another 5-7 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden, completing this delicious one-pan dinner.
  6. Serve Dish: Garnish your finished Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Potatoes One-Pan with fresh chopped parsley and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, if you like a little heat. Serve immediately and enjoy this comforting, flavorful meal with your family.

Notes

Avoid overcrowding your baking sheet to ensure potatoes roast and crisp, rather than steam.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days; reheat on a baking sheet for crispness.

Chicken breast can replace thighs; adjust baking time as it cooks faster and can dry out.

Serve this comforting meal warm, garnished with fresh parsley, alongside a simple green salad or crusty bread.

For ultimate crispy potatoes, par-boil them for five minutes before tossing with oil and baking.
