Chicken In A Basket

Ingredients:
– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1 teaspoon dried thyme
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 onion, chopped
– 2 bell peppers, sliced
– 2 cups baby potatoes, halved
– 1 cup cherry tomatoes
– Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.

3. Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board and pat them dry with paper towels. Rub the spice mixture all over the chicken, ensuring they are well coated.

4. In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are nicely browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

5. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and bell peppers. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.

6. Add the halved baby potatoes to the skillet and toss them with the veggies. Cook for another 5 minutes until they begin to brown slightly.

7. Nestle the browned chicken breasts back into the skillet among the veggies. Scatter the cherry tomatoes around the chicken.

8. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the veggies are tender.

9. Once done, remove the skillet from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
