Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Place the baby potatoes on one half of a large sheet pan and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Season them with salt and pepper to taste before tossing to coat evenly.
- Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper in a shallow dish.
- Coat each chicken breast in the Parmesan mixture, ensuring it adheres well.
- Place the coated chicken breasts on the other half of the sheet pan.
- Drizzle the chicken with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
- After the initial baking time, take the sheet pan out of the oven and add the broccoli florets. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Return the sheet pan to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, checking that the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the potatoes are tender.
- Remove the sheet pan from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve the dish and enjoy!
