# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper until well combined.
03 - Add chicken breasts to the marinade and toss thoroughly to coat all sides. Allow to marinate while preparing vegetables.
04 - In a separate bowl, toss halved potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
05 - Spread seasoned potatoes on the prepared sheet pan with cut side down. Roast for 15 minutes.
06 - Remove sheet pan from oven. Push potatoes to one side and arrange marinated chicken breasts and green beans on the pan. Drizzle any remaining marinade over the chicken and beans.
07 - Return sheet pan to oven and roast for 20 minutes or until chicken reaches internal temperature of 165°F and potatoes are golden and tender.
08 - Broil for 2 to 3 minutes for enhanced color if desired.
09 - Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon wedges before serving.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • Minimal cleanup with just one sheet pan for the entire meal
  • Perfect balance of protein, vegetables, and starch in every bite
  • Bright lemon and garlic flavors that enliven the entire dish
  • Adaptable to what you have on hand or seasonal vegetables
  • Ready in under an hour with mostly hands-off cooking time
02 -
  • For the crispiest potatoes, make sure to place them cut-side down on the sheet pan
  • Don't overcrowd your sheet pan - ingredients should be in a single layer with a bit of space between them
  • Pat the chicken dry before marinating for better flavor absorption
  • Line your sheet pan with parchment paper or foil for virtually no cleanup
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken is perfectly cooked to 165°F (74°C)
  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes after cooking for the juiciest results
