Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F and spray a large baking sheet with nonstick spray.
Start by making the marinade: add the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, paprika, parsley, salt, and pepper to a bowl or glass measuring cup and whisk to combine.
Next, place the chicken onto a plate and brush both sides of each chicken breast with some of the marinade; set aside.
Slice the potatoes and place them into a bowl. Drizzle them with the remaining marinade and toss to combine. Pour the potatoes onto the baking sheet, then place them in the oven and roast for 15 minutes.
Remove the potatoes from the oven, then move them to the outside of the baking sheet, creating an open space in the middle. Transfer the chicken to the baking sheet, then place back into the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
Optional: once the time is up, switch the oven to broil and broil everything for 3 minutes.
Remove from the oven, then grate lemon zest over the chicken and parmesan cheese over top of everything. Enjoy!
