How to make Herb-Crusted Chicken Breast with Roasted Baby Potatoes & Garlic Green Beans
Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a bowl, toss baby potatoes with olive oil, herbs, salt, and pepper. Spread on half of the baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes.
Step 3: While the potatoes start roasting, rub chicken breasts with olive oil and season with garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
Step 4: Remove the tray, add seasoned chicken breasts beside the potatoes, and return to oven. Bake for another 20–25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and potatoes are golden.
Step 5: While everything roasts, blanch green beans in boiling water for 2–3 minutes, then transfer to ice water to stop cooking. Drain.
Step 6: In a skillet, melt butter and sauté garlic until fragrant. Add green beans and sauté for 3–4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 7: Slice the chicken breasts and serve alongside roasted potatoes and garlic green beans. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
Recipe Variations and Possible Substitutions
- Swap chicken breasts for thighs or bone-in cuts.
- Add grated Parmesan to the potatoes for extra flavor.
- Use broccoli or asparagus instead of green beans.
- Add lemon zest to chicken for a citrusy twist.
Storage and Reheating Tips
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat chicken and potatoes in a 350°F oven until warmed through. Green beans can be reheated in a skillet or microwave. Avoid overcooking to maintain texture.
