04 - In a large bowl, toss halved baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and Parmesan until coated evenly.
05 - Place potatoes on one side of the baking sheet in a single layer. Place coated chicken breasts on the other side and drizzle lightly with olive oil.
06 - Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, flipping potatoes halfway through, until chicken reaches 165°F internally and potatoes are crispy and tender.
07 - Allow chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley and optionally serve with lemon wedges.
