Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 lb baby potatoes, halved

1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 medium onion, sliced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 tablespoon Italian seasoning (oregano, basil, thyme)

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for heat)

1/4 cup olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Chicken: In a large bowl, combine the chicken breasts with half of the olive oil, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat the chicken evenly.

      Prepare the Vegetables: In another bowl, add the halved baby potatoes, green beans, sliced onion, and cherry tomatoes. Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the vegetables and season with salt and pepper. Toss to mix everything thoroughly.

        Assemble the Bake: In a large baking dish, arrange the seasoned chicken breasts. Surround them with the mixed vegetables, spreading them evenly throughout the dish.

          Cheese it Up: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the chicken and vegetables.

            Bake: Cover the dish with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 25 minutes. After 25 minutes, remove the foil and check for doneness. Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the potatoes are tender.

              Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with freshly torn basil leaves before serving.
