Simple Ingredients:

Ingredients list for crispy parmesan chicken sheet pan meal. Fresh green beans, baby red potatoes, chicken breast, lemon pepper, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper, panko bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, fresh garlic, and olive oil.

Chicken- I like to use chicken breasts for this recipe because it's leaner and cooks faster.
Oil- Use olive or avocado oil for the best flavor.
Seasonings- Dried thyme, salt-free lemon pepper seasoning, salt and pepper are flavor enhancers for the chicken and veggies.
Panko breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese- Panko crumbs combined with parmesan cheese make the perfect outer crust on the baked chicken.
Garlic- Fresh garlic is used to flavor the chicken coating, along with the infusing garlicky goodness on the beans.
Veggies- Fresh green beans and baby red potatoes.

Substitutions:

Other veggies- Feel free to use other veggies you might enjoy. Asparagus, broccoli or cauliflower, red onions, carrots, zucchini, or mushrooms. Keep in mind different veggies have variable cooking times so adjust accordingly.
Breadcrumbs- Panko crumbs are light and crisp and make the perfect coating for the chicken. You can also use regular breadcrumbs or even gluten-free.

How To Make Crispy Chicken Parmesan Sheet Pan Meal:

See full instructions in recipe card below

Step One. Heat oven temperature to 425℉ and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.

Step Two. In a large bowl combine halved potatoes with oil, lemon pepper, salt and pepper. Spread out in an even layer on prepared sheet pan. Roast in the oven for 15-minutes.

Step Three. While the potatoes are roasting prepare the beans and chicken. To the same bowl used for potatoes toss the beans with oil, garlic, salt and pepper. Set aside until ready to use.

Step Four. In a shallow dish combine panko crumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic, thyme, salt, pepper, and oil. Dredge chicken pieces on both sides in breadcrumb mixture.

Step Five. Remove potatoes from the oven and arrange them in the center of the pan. Lay dredged chicken in a single row on one side of the potatoes, then place the beans on the other side of the potatoes. Place back in the oven and turn the heat up to 425℉ and roast for an additional 25-30-minutes or until chicken is cooked through and crisp. Top with fresh parsley and extra parmesan cheese if desired and serve.

Recipe Tips:

💡For extra crispy potatoes. Roast potatoes during the first cooking time for an additional 5-minutes to ensure potatoes get extra crispy.
💡For softer beans. If you like your beans on the softer side, pre-boil the beans in water for 3-5 minutes. Drain and place in a bowl with ice water to stop the cooking. Remove from the water and pat dry. Proceed with the original steps.
💡If you want both sides of the chicken crispy. The underside of the chicken is not as crisp as the top. To make sure both sides are crisp turn chicken half way through during the cooking time.
💡Do not use foil on your sheet pan. For best results with this recipe use parchment paper or grease the pan really well with a neutral oil. Using foil with cause the parmesan cheese to stick to the foil.

Common Questions:

🗨Can I use chicken thighs for this recipe?

Yes! However chicken thighs take a bit longer to cook. You'll want to bake them for 10-minutes before adding the beans. Make sure they are boneless and skinless for best results.

🗨What is the best way to reheat leftovers?

Place the potatoes, chicken, and beans on a sheet pan and bake in a preheated oven set to 300℉ until just heated through. This takes about 10-15 minutes. You can also use an air fryer if you have one.

🗨How long does parmesan chicken sheet pan meal last?

Place cooled meal in a sealed container and keep in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
