- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- For crispy chicken skin, broil the chicken for 2-3 minutes at the end of baking.
- Swap out the potatoes for sweet potatoes for a different twist.
- For a lighter version, use skinless chicken thighs instead of breasts.
- The garlic Parmesan mixture can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.
