Main Meal (Chicken, Potatoes & Broccoli)

1. Season & Roast the Potatoes

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. Slice fingerlings in half or quarters.
  3. Toss with olive oil, Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. Spread cut-side down in their section of a large sheet pan.
  5. Roast for 10 minutes.

2. Prep the Chicken

  1. While potatoes roast, whisk the egg in one bowl.
  2. In another bowl, combine panko, Parmesan, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Season chicken on both sides.
  4. Dip each piece in egg → then panko mixture, pressing to coat.
  5. Lightly oil the center section of the sheet pan for the chicken.

3. Add Chicken & Build the Tomato Sauce

  1. Remove potatoes from oven. Add the breaded chicken pieces to the middle of the pan.
  2. Form a small aluminum-foil “bowl” and nestle it into a corner of the pan.
  3. Toss grape tomatoes with minced garlic, olive oil, and a pinch of red pepper flakes; place in the foil bowl.
  4. Return the pan to the oven for 15 minutes.

4. Add Broccoli & Finish the Tomato Sauce

  2. After the 15 minutes, remove the pan and add broccoli to the last open section.
  3. Use a spoon to gently crush the roasted tomatoes; stir in the tomato paste.
  4. Return the pan to the oven for 10–12 minutes, until chicken reaches 165°F.

5. Add Sauce & Cheese
