Ingredients
- 3–4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 cup fresh green beans (or broccoli)
- 1–2 medium potatoes, cut into bite-sized pieces (optional)
- Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly spray with cooking oil.
- In a shallow dish, combine Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Drizzle olive oil over the chicken breasts, then coat them evenly with the Parmesan-breadcrumb mixture.
- Arrange the coated chicken breasts on the sheet pan.
- In a bowl, toss the green beans (and potatoes, if using) with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them around the chicken.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) internally and the vegetables are tender.
- Optional: Broil for 3-4 minutes for extra crispiness.
- Let rest for a few minutes, then garnish with parsley before serving.
Notes
- For a spicier version, add red pepper flakes to the breadcrumb mixture.
- You can swap out green beans for other vegetables such as broccoli, zucchini, or bell peppers.
- For a low-carb option, skip the potatoes and serve with cauliflower rice.
