Herbed Chicken and Potatoes
(Serves 5)
Herbed Potatoes
3 medium potatoes, cut to 1" cubes
3 red potatoes, cut to 1" cubes
1 small red onion, diced
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 tsp dried rosemary, minced fine
1/4 tsp dried thyme, minced fine
dash fresh ground sea salt
dash fresh ground pepper
Herbed Chicken
5 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, fat trimmed and cut to 1" cubes
2.5 Tbsp olive oil
4-5 tsp thyme
3 tsp sea salt
3 tsp freshly ground pepper (I use lemon peppercorns and they give the dish a slight citrus flavor that's yummy)
Set oven to 450 F.
Prepare 2 cookie sheets with raised sides with olive oil spray. Not too much. Just enough to coat the bottoms.
Mix the potatoes and their ingredients together in a bowl, stirring to coat. Shake them out onto one cookie sheet, spreading them out so they're not too lumped together. Place them in the oven. Set the timer to 21 minutes.
Now slice up your chicken breasts and add them to the same bowl you used for the potatoes along with their ingredients. Stir well to coat. Spread the chicken out on the second cookie sheet. The timer should have counted down now to about 15 minutes. Pop the chicken in the oven with the potatoes.
When the timer goes off, it should all be done at the same time. To serve, I took a fifth of each tray and spooned it into a bowl, mixing it all up together. Yum yum yum! Enjoy!
This looks really good. what are lemon peppercorns?
ReplyDeleteYUM. I really should know better by now than to read your posts before I eat lunch :)
ReplyDeleteWhen you buy whole peppercorns at the store to put in your pepper mill, there's a variety of different "flavors" to choose from. Not artificial flavors, but natural varieties of the peppercorns. Find one you like and play with it, seeing how it changes previously "dull peppered" dishes into little taste-bud disco balls. :)
