4. Assemble on the Pan
- Place the seasoned chicken on one side of the prepared baking sheet.
- Spread the potatoes evenly on the other side, ensuring they’re in a single layer for even cooking.
5. Bake
- Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through.
- Check that the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) using a meat thermometer.
6. Optional Finishing Touch
