💡 Substitutions and Variations
- Italian Seasoning - try my homemade Italian Seasoning recipe that I use to make salad dressing instead of a store-bought brand.
- Switch up your vegetables! This is a great dish to use up what you have on hand. Green beans, asparagus, or broccoli would also be great roasted.

Step-by-Step Instructions
- Step 1: Add chicken breasts to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Step 2: Brush the chicken with vegetable oil and sprinkle on some Italian seasoning.


📌Quick Tip: Use parchment paper for easy clean up! Leave the skin on the chicken breast while roasting for a flavorful and moist chicken breast. It can be removed after baking if desired.
- Step 3: Toss the potatoes in vegetable oil and season with Italian seasoning and paprika.
- Step 4: Add the potatoes to the sheet pan with the chicken breasts.



- Step 5: Toss the carrots with vegetable oil and Italian seasoning. Set aside while the chicken and potatoes cook. Since the carrots will not take that long to cook, we're going to allow the chicken and potatoes to cook first.



Baking Instructions
- Bake the chicken and potatoes for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and stir the potatoes.
- Add the carrots to the other side of the chicken.
- Return to the oven and bake for 15 more minutes or until the chicken reaches 165°F.
- If the chicken, potatoes, and carrots haven't browned, broil for about 5 minutes. Keep a close eye on them so they don't burn!
