Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2: Prepare the Chicken and Potatoes
- In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.

- Spread the chicken and potatoes evenly on a baking sheet.
Step 3: Bake
- Bake the chicken and potatoes in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F/75°C) and the potatoes are tender and golden.
Step 4: Make the Garlic Parmesan Sauce
- While the chicken and potatoes are baking, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat.

Notes
Cut the potatoes evenly – This ensures they cook at the same rate as the chicken.
Don’t overcrowd the pan – Spread the chicken and potatoes out so they cook evenly and crisp up.
Customize the sauce – Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick or a squeeze of lemon juice for a fresh zing.
