Description

Flavorful chicken and potatoes roast together for a vibrant, healthy meal. Perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or easy lunch prep.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lbs (454 g) boneless (skinless chicken breasts)
  • 2 lbs (907 g) fingerling potatoes or small new potatoes (halved)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (finely minced)
  • 1 tbsp adobo sauce
  • 1 tbsp lime zest
  • 1 tbsp fresh chopped cilantro
  • 1 tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, lime zest, lime juice, cilantro, and kosher salt.
  3. In the bowl, toss potatoes until evenly coated. Using a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to a 9×13-inch glass baking dish, reserving the remaining mixture.
  4. Add chicken to the bowl. Turn multiple times to coat the chicken. Place the chicken in the center of the baking dish and arrange the potatoes around it.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender and chicken is cooked through and no longer pink.

Notes

  • For extra smoky flavor, broil the chicken and potatoes for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking.
  • Substitute sweet potatoes for fingerling potatoes for added sweetness and a different texture.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheated in the microwave or oven.
