Description

A flavorful and easy one-pan meal featuring juicy garlic herb chicken breasts roasted alongside tender baby potatoes and fresh green beans, all infused with a zesty lemon Dijon sauce. This wholesome dish is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner with minimal cleanup.


Ingredients

Chicken

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt & black pepper to taste

Vegetables

  • 3 cups baby potatoes, quartered
  • 2 cups fresh green beans
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Sauce

  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a large baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare Chicken: Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, then season them evenly with garlic powder, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Set aside while you prepare the vegetables.
  3. Toss Vegetables: In a mixing bowl, combine the quartered baby potatoes and fresh green beans with olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat all pieces thoroughly.
  4. Arrange in Baking Dish: Spread the seasoned potatoes and green beans evenly across the bottom of the baking dish, then nestle the seasoned chicken breasts directly on top of the vegetables.
  5. Prepare Sauce and Drizzle: Whisk together the chicken broth, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard in a small bowl until smooth. Drizzle this mixture evenly over the chicken and vegetables in the baking dish.
  6. Roast to Perfection: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and roast for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the potatoes become tender when pierced with a fork.
  7. Rest and Serve: Remove the dish from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve the chicken slices with the roasted potatoes and green beans, drizzling any remaining pan sauce over the top for added flavor.

Notes

  • Make sure to check the internal temperature of the chicken with a meat thermometer to ensure it is fully cooked.
  • If your baby potatoes are larger, you can cut them smaller to ensure even cooking.
  • Feel free to swap green beans for other vegetables like asparagus or broccoli depending on your preference.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the chicken seasoning.
