How to Make Parmesan Crusted Chicken Sheet Pan Dinner
- Prep the Oven and Potatoes:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the potatoes with olive oil, parmesan, garlic, salt, and pepper. Spread them evenly on a sheet pan and bake for 15 minutes to give them a head start. - Prepare the Chicken:
While the potatoes bake, combine olive oil, parmesan, breadcrumbs, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Coat the chicken breasts thoroughly in the mixture. - Add the Chicken and Green Beans:
After 15 minutes, push the potatoes to one-third of the sheet pan. Place the chicken breasts next to the potatoes. Toss the green beans with olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper (and parmesan if desired), then add them to the remaining space on the pan. - Bake:
Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). If the green beans cook too quickly, remove them early. For extra crispy potatoes, broil on high for 3–4 minutes after everything is cooked. - Serve and Enjoy:
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Plate everything together and enjoy this flavorful, easy meal!
Tips for Success
- Even Chicken: Pound chicken breasts to about 1 inch thickness for even cooking.
- Crispy Chicken Bottoms: Place the chicken on a rack over the sheet pan to prevent sogginess.
- Flavor Boost: Add ½–1 tsp of Italian seasoning or oregano to the chicken and potatoes for extra flavor.
Storage & Reheating
- Storage: Store leftovers in airtight containers for up to 4 days in the fridge. For longer storage, freeze in airtight containers for up to 3 months.
- Reheating:
- Air Fryer: Heat at 350°F (175°C) for 4–5 minutes for crispy potatoes and chicken.
- Oven: Bake at 350°F for 8–10 minutes.
- Microwave: Heat for 1½–2 minutes, adjusting as needed.

⅓ cup breadcrumbs (Italian or plain; add 1 tsp Italian seasoning if using plain)
½ tsp cracked pepper
½–¾ tsp sea salt

Directions
- Preheat and Prep the Pan:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly spray it with cooking oil for easy cleanup.
- Cook the Potatoes:
- In a medium bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, garlic, parmesan, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Spread the potatoes over one-third of the sheet pan and bake for 10–15 minutes. For extra browning, opt for the longer cook time.
- Prepare the Chicken:
- While the potatoes bake, use the same bowl to toss the chicken with olive oil, garlic, parmesan, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper until well coated.
- Add Chicken and Green Beans:
- Remove the pan from the oven and shift the potatoes to one side. Add the chicken to the middle of the pan. In the same bowl, toss the green beans with olive oil, garlic, parmesan (if using), salt, and pepper. Spread the green beans on the remaining space.
- Bake:
- Return the sheet pan to the oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). For extra crispy potatoes, broil on high for 4–5 minutes after baking.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Let everything cool for a few minutes before serving. Plate the chicken, potatoes, and green beans together for a complete, flavorful meal.
