Ingredients
Scale
For the Roasted Potatoes
- 3 medium potatoes, diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
For the Chicken
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano or preferred seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for roasting the potatoes.
- Prepare the potatoes: Dice the potatoes into bite-sized pieces and toss them in olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
- Roast the potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through to ensure even crispiness and golden brown edges.
- Cook the chicken: While the potatoes roast, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and dried oregano. Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- Assemble the bowl: Place a portion of roasted potatoes in a bowl, top with sliced chicken breast, and optionally garnish with fresh herbs or a squeeze of lemon for brightness. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- For extra flavor, marinate the chicken for 30 minutes before cooking.
- You can substitute potatoes with sweet potatoes for a different flavor and added nutrients.
- To make this meal gluten-free, ensure all seasonings are certified gluten-free.
- For added vegetables, consider roasting sliced bell peppers or broccoli alongside the potatoes.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
