Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 cups baby potatoes, halved

• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or a thin layer of olive oil.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to create a seasoning blend.

Step 4

Place the chicken breasts in the center of the baking dish.

Step 5

Arrange the halved baby potatoes and sliced carrots around the chicken.

Step 6

Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the chicken and vegetables.

Step 7

Sprinkle the seasoning blend evenly over the chicken and vegetables, ensuring everything is well coated.

Step 8

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the foil and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the chicken breasts.

Step 10

Return the dish to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F) and the potatoes are fork-tender.

Step 11

Optional: Turn on the broiler for 1-2 minutes at the end to lightly brown the cheese.

Step 12

Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.

Step 13

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving, if desired.
