Equipment

  • Large sheet pan

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season both sides with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  3. In a small bowl, melt butter and stir in minced garlic, lemon juice, and Italian seasoning.
  4. Spread halved baby potatoes on the pan, drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat and roast for 15 minutes.
  5. Add seasoned chicken breasts to the pan beside the potatoes.
  6. Toss broccoli florets and asparagus with half the garlic butter sauce, then arrange around the chicken.
  7. Roast for 20-25 minutes or until chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) internal temperature.
  8. In the last 5 minutes, drizzle remaining garlic butter sauce over everything.
  9. Optional: Broil for 2-3 minutes for golden, crispy finish. Watch carefully to prevent burning.

Notes

Ensure chicken reaches internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Feel free to substitute or add other vegetables. For added flavor, marinate chicken in garlic butter sauce for a few hours before baking. Line pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
