A simple and delicious sheet pan meal featuring marinated chicken breasts and roasted baby potatoes, combining vibrant lemon and balsamic flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken: In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until combined. Add the chicken breasts and ensure they are evenly coated with the marinade. Let them soak up those flavors for about 15-30 minutes while you prepare the potatoes.
  2. Prepare the potatoes: While the chicken marinates, wash and halve the baby potatoes. Place the halved potatoes in the same bowl with any remaining marinade. Toss them gently to coat.
  3. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will get your kitchen toasty and ready to create that golden crust on the chicken and potatoes.
  4. Arrange on sheet pan: Spread the marinated chicken breasts and potatoes in a single layer on a large sheet pan. Make sure they are not overcrowded to allow for perfect roasting.
  5. Bake to perfection: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes. After this time, check the chicken’s doneness (165°F internal temperature), and ensure the potatoes are tender. If needed, cook for an additional 10 minutes.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley: Once everything is beautifully cooked, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Sprinkle the freshly chopped parsley over the chicken and potatoes for a burst of herbaceous flavor and color.
  7. Serve and enjoy: Serve the sheet pan lemon balsamic chicken and potatoes immediately, ensuring that everyone gets an even share of this flavorful dish.

Notes

For extra flavor, let the chicken marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
