❓ Frequently Asked Questions About One Pan Baked Chicken and Potatoes
1. Can I use chicken breasts instead of thighs?
Yes you can. Boneless skinless chicken breasts work well but they cook faster. Check for doneness at around 25 minutes. The potatoes may need a few extra minutes so you can remove the chicken and let the potatoes finish cooking alone.
2. Do I need to flip the potatoes while baking?
No flipping is needed for this recipe. Just spread the potatoes in a single layer and they will brown evenly on the bottom. If you want extra crispy tops you can stir them halfway through.
3. Can I add other vegetables to the pan?
Absolutely. Carrots broccoli or bell peppers are great additions. Just cut them into similar sized pieces and toss them with the potatoes before baking.
4. How do I store leftovers?
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 350 degree oven for about 10 minutes to keep the chicken and potatoes crispy.
5. Can I make this recipe dairy free or gluten free?
Yes this recipe is naturally dairy free and gluten free. Just be sure to check that your seasonings do not contain any hidden additives.
