Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  2. Toss the red potato halves in a medium bowl with olive oil, minced garlic, grated parmesan, kosher salt, and black pepper. Spread on one side of the baking sheet.
  3. Roast the potatoes for 10-15 minutes until they start to brown and soften.
  4. Prepare chicken by mixing chicken breasts, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, breadcrumbs, and grated parmesan until well-coated.
  5. Add the baking sheet back into the oven with chicken in the center. Toss green beans with olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper, and add them to the empty spots on the sheet.
  6. Bake for another 25 minutes, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. For extra crispiness, broil for 4-5 minutes!
  7. Cool slightly before serving.
