Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Pat chicken breasts or thighs dry and rub with olive oil, then season with Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  3. In a large bowl, toss halved potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, grated Parmesan, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the seasoned chicken on one side of the baking sheet and the potatoes on the other in a single layer.
  5. Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping potatoes midway, until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) and is golden.
  6. Sprinkle extra Parmesan on chicken and potatoes, then broil for an additional 5 minutes for a crispy finish.
  7. Remove from oven, let rest for a few minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
