Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces chicken thighs or breasts
  • 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
  • 1 lb green beans, trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon dried herbs (such as thyme, rosemary, or Italian seasoning)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (optional) Add in the last 5 minutes of roasting.
  • Lemon wedges for serving (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, baby potatoes, green beans, olive oil, dried herbs, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  3. Arrange the mixture in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
Cooking
  1. Roast in the oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F) and the potatoes are tender.
  2. If using, add minced garlic in the last 5 minutes of roasting for extra flavor.
Serving
  1. Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.

Notes

Timing is key: Make sure everything is cut similarly to cook evenly. Feel free to use whatever veggies you have on hand — carrots or bell peppers work beautifully! Fresh herbs can elevate the dish, just adjust amounts as they're more potent.
