Behind the Recipe
Everything roasts on one pan, the potatoes get browned edges, and the Parmesan lands on both the chicken and vegetables. It is simple enough for a weeknight and normal enough that the kids will not stare at it like it came from another planet.

- 1 1/2 pounds raw boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into large bite-size pieces
- 1 pound baby gold potatoes, quartered
- 6 ounces zucchini, cut into 3/4-inch half-moons
- 6 ounces yellow squash, cut into 3/4-inch half-moons
- 6 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese

- 1/2 tablespoon Italian seasoning

Instructions
- Heat the oven to 425°F and coat a large rimmed sheet pan with cooking spray.
- Toss the potatoes with half of the olive oil, half of the garlic, half of the Italian seasoning, and a pinch of the salt and pepper.
- Spread the potatoes on the pan and roast for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toss the chicken, zucchini, and yellow squash with the remaining olive oil, garlic, Italian seasoning, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Turn the potatoes, then add the chicken and squash to the pan in an even layer, placing as much squash cut-side down as possible.
- Roast for 12 to 15 minutes, until the chicken reaches 165°F, the squash is browned at the edges, and the potatoes are tender.
- Sprinkle the Parmesan over the hot pan and return it to the oven for 2 minutes.
- Divide into four servings, with 4.5 ounces cooked chicken, 4 ounces potatoes, 3 ounces squash, and 1.5 tablespoons Parmesan in each serving.
40/400 Notes
- Keep the chicken pieces fairly large so they do not dry out before the potatoes finish.
- Use two pans if the ingredients are crowded; space creates browned edges instead of steam.
- Cut the zucchini and yellow squash into thick 3/4-inch half-moons so they brown without becoming mushy.
- Nutrition is approximate and varies with chicken and Parmesan brand.
