Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Season the Potatoes
In a large bowl, toss the diced potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly in the baking dish.
Step 3: Prepare the Chicken
Brush the chicken breasts with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with a sprinkle of salt, pepper, and paprika.
Place the chicken on top of the potatoes in the baking dish.
Step 4: Bake
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the potatoes (if using), and bake for another 15–20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (165°F internal temperature) and the potatoes are golden and tender.
Step 5: Serve
Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Pair with a side salad, roasted veggies, or crusty bread for a complete meal.
