Prepare a simple, complete dinner using one sheet pan featuring chicken breasts and baby potatoes seasoned with bright lemon pepper flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1.5-inch pieces
  • 1.5 lb baby potatoes, halved or quartered
  • 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 tablespoons lemon pepper seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 large lemon, thinly sliced
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, half of the lemon pepper seasoning, oregano, and garlic powder. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on one half of the prepared baking sheet.
  3. In the same bowl, toss the chicken pieces with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, the remaining lemon pepper seasoning, and salt and pepper. Place the chicken pieces on the other half of the baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
  4. Place the thinly sliced lemon pieces evenly over the chicken and potatoes.
  5. Roast for 15 minutes.
  6. Remove the pan from the oven. Toss the trimmed asparagus with a small amount of remaining olive oil (if any) and place it among the chicken and potatoes.
  7. Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender, the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius), and the vegetables are lightly browned.
  8. Serve immediately directly from the pan.

Notes

  • For crispier potatoes, you can roast them alone for 10 minutes before adding the seasoned chicken to the pan.
  • Use chicken thighs instead of breasts; adjust cooking time as needed, as thighs may require a few extra minutes.
  • If you do not have baby potatoes, use Yukon Gold or red potatoes cut into uniform 1-inch pieces.
