Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes (halved if large)
  • 12 oz fresh green beans, trimmed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp whole grain mustard (optional)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1 tsp dried)
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (plus more for garnish)
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt & black pepper, to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large glass or ceramic baking dish.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, paprika, chopped rosemary, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper.
  3. Toss the halved baby potatoes with half of the marinade. Place the potatoes in the prepared baking dish.
Cooking
  1. Bake the potatoes in the oven for 15 minutes, uncovered.
  2. While the potatoes are baking, coat the chicken breasts with the remaining marinade.
  3. After 15 minutes, remove the baking dish from the oven. Stir the potatoes and nestle the chicken breasts into the dish.
  4. Bake for another 20–25 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  5. While the chicken bakes, steam or sauté the green beans for 6–8 minutes until tender but still crisp. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Once the chicken is done, remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  7. Slice the chicken and serve it alongside the potatoes and green beans. Garnish with extra parsley and drizzle any pan juices over the top before serving.

Notes

Make sure to cut the baby potatoes evenly to ensure they cook evenly. If you like a little heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade. Feel free to swap out the green beans for other vegetables like carrots or broccoli, based on your preferences. Letting the chicken rest for a few minutes after baking helps keep it juicy.
