Ingredients
1/2 cup salted butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 pound baby potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 head broccoli, cut into florets
1/2 pound asparagus, trimmed
A few sprigs fresh rosemary
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat, letting it cook until it turns golden brown and smells nutty, then stir in the minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breasts, potatoes, broccoli, and asparagus on the prepared sheet pan.
Brush the chicken and all vegetables generously with the prepared garlic butter mixture.
Tuck the fresh rosemary sprigs among the ingredients on the pan.
Roast in the oven for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and potatoes are fork-tender.
Remove from the oven, discard rosemary sprigs, and serve immediately.
Notes
Ensure chicken breasts are pounded to a uniform thickness for even internal cooking. You can swap seasonal vegetables like carrots or green beans depending on availability. Browning the butter is key for depth of flavor—watch closely to avoid burning.
