Ingredients
  

  • 2 skinless boneless chicken breast halves
  • ¼ cup Greek salad dressing such as Ken’s®
  • ½ pound baby potatoes halved
  • 2 tablespoons Greek salad dressing such as Ken’s®, divided
  • 4 ounces fresh green beans trimmed
  • ½ orange bell pepper cut into 1/2-inch strips
  • 2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese Optional
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Sheet pan (rimmed baking sheet)
  • Parchment paper or foil (optional for easy cleanup)
  • Cutting board and knife
  • Mixing bowl
  • Tongs or spatula

Method
 

  1. Pound chicken breasts to an even 1-inch thickness with a meat tenderizer. Place into a resealable bag and drizzle with 1/4 cup Greek salad dressing. Marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours to overnight.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line an 11×17-inch sheet pan with foil. Remove chicken breasts from marinade and place on the center of the sheet pan. Discard marinade.
  3. Toss potatoes with 1 tablespoon Greek salad dressing in a bowl. Place potatoes to one side of the chicken.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, place green beans and bell pepper into the same bowl and toss with remaining 1 tablespoon Greek salad dressing.
  6. Remove sheet pan from oven, stir potatoes, and add beans and bell pepper to the other side of chicken. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the chicken reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 8 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle with feta cheese and season salt and pepper.

Notes

If potatoes are on the larger side, cut into quarters so that pieces are no larger than 1-inch thick.
The vegetables will be cooked al dente in this recipe. If you prefer soft vegetables, add them in after the chicken has cooked for 12 minutes and cook an additional 11 to 13 minutes.
