This is a complete, comforting meal where juicy chicken, tender potatoes, and vibrant broccoli roast together on one pan. Everything is coated in a luscious, savory sauce that bakes into a golden, cheesy crust. It's an impressively easy family favorite with maximum flavor and minimal cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 to 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 lb baby potatoes, halved or quartered if large
  • 1 large head of broccoli, cut into florets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup heavy cream or half and half
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, toss chicken, potatoes, and broccoli with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Arrange the chicken and vegetables in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, and Italian seasoning.
  5. Pour the creamy Parmesan sauce evenly over the chicken and vegetables on the sheet pan.
  6. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through (165°F internally) and potatoes are fork tender. The top should be golden and crusted.
  7. Let the dish rest on the pan for 5 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
  8. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

For extra crispiness, broil for the final 2-3 minutes, watching closely. Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best melting sauce. Chicken breasts can be used but reduce cook time by 5-7 minutes. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
