Prepare a complete dinner with chicken, potatoes, and asparagus cooked together on one sheet pan using lemon pepper seasoning for easy cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into 1.5-inch pieces
  • 1.5 lbs small potatoes (like Yukon Gold or red potatoes), quartered
  • 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon pepper seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 lemon, sliced thinly

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the quartered potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of lemon pepper seasoning, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Toss to coat evenly.
  3. Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on one half of the prepared baking sheet.
  4. In the same bowl, toss the chicken pieces with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons of lemon pepper seasoning, garlic powder, and remaining salt and pepper.
  5. Arrange the seasoned chicken pieces on the other half of the baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
  6. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 15 minutes.
  7. Remove the pan from the oven. Toss the trimmed asparagus with any remaining oil or seasoning drippings on the pan. Arrange the asparagus around the chicken and potatoes. Place the thin lemon slices over the chicken.
  8. Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit) and the potatoes are tender.
  9. Serve immediately directly from the pan.

Notes

  • For crispier potatoes, you can parboil the potatoes for 5 minutes before tossing them with oil and seasoning.
  • If you use chicken thighs, they may require 5 minutes longer cooking time than breasts.
  • You can substitute green beans for asparagus if desired; add them at the same time as the asparagus.
