Description

A quick and flavorful weeknight dinner featuring juicy chicken and crisp-roasted baby potatoes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a sheet pan with foil or parchment for easier cleanup.
  2. Whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.
  3. Place the chicken breasts and halved potatoes in a large zip-top bag or mixing bowl. Pour the marinade over them and toss until evenly coated.
  4. Marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes; up to 4 hours for more flavor.
  5. Arrange the chicken and potatoes on the prepared sheet pan in a single layer.
  6. Drizzle any leftover marinade over the top, leaving space between pieces.
  7. Roast for 25–30 minutes, turning the potatoes once after about 15 minutes.
  8. Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Notes

For extra lemon flavor, add 1–2 tablespoons of lemon juice to the marinade. Refrigerate leftovers within two hours.
