Ingredients

For the Chicken

  • • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • • 1 tsp paprika
  • • Salt & black pepper to taste

For the Vegetables

  • • 3 cups baby potatoes, quartered
  • • 2 cups fresh green beans, trimmed
  • • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • • Salt & pepper to taste

For the Sauce

  • • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • • Juice of 1 lemon
  • • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard

Instructions

  • • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large baking dish or sheet pan.

  • • Season the chicken by rubbing it with olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Set aside to marinate slightly.

  • • Prep the vegetables: In a large bowl, toss baby potatoes and green beans with olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

  • • Assemble: Spread the veggies in an even layer in your baking dish, then nestle the chicken breasts on top.

  • • Make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together chicken broth, fresh lemon juice, and Dijon mustard. Drizzle evenly over the entire dish.

  • • Bake for 40–45 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temp of 165°F / 74°C) and potatoes are tender. You can broil for the last 2-3 minutes for extra crispiness.

  • • Rest & serve: Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with veggies and drizzle with pan juices for extra flavor.

Chef’s Notes & Variations

  • • Veggie Swap: Use carrots, zucchini, broccoli, or bell peppers to mix things up.
  • • Make It Spicy: Add red chili flakes or cayenne pepper for a spicy twist.
  • • Add Cheese: Top with shredded mozzarella or Parmesan during the last 10 minutes for a cheesy layer.
