  • Author: Luna
  • Total Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
– 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
– 1/4 cup olive oil
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 2 lemons, juiced and zested
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1 teaspoon dried thyme
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating Lemon Balsamic Chicken & Potatoes is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.
3. Marinate Chicken: Place chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or bowl. Pour half of the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it’s well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
4. Prepare Potatoes: In a separate bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with the remaining marinade until evenly coated.
5. Arrange in Pan: Spread the marinated potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet or roasting pan. Place the marinated chicken breasts on top of the potatoes.
6. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the potatoes are tender.
7. Baste (Optional): If desired, baste the chicken and potatoes with the pan juices halfway through cooking for extra flavor.
8. Rest: Once cooked, remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes.
9. Garnish: Sprinkle fresh parsley over the dish for added color and flavor before serving.
