Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 lb baby potatoes halved
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Method
 

  1. Set your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius) to preheat.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper and whisk until smooth.
  3. Add the chicken breasts and halved potatoes to a large resealable bag or bowl and pour the marinade over them; seal and refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes.
  4. Arrange the marinated chicken and potatoes evenly on a sheet pan, ensuring they are spread out in one layer.
  5. Place the sheet pan in the oven and roast for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are fork tender.
  6. Before serving, sprinkle with fresh parsley to garnish and add a burst of color and fresh flavor.

Notes

  • For deeper flavor, consider marinating the chicken and potatoes overnight.
  • You can customize the dish by adding vegetables like bell peppers or green beans to the sheet pan.
  • Always confirm the chicken's internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) for safe consumption.
