600 g (1.3 lb) russet potatoes, cut into wedges
300 g (10.5 oz) green beans, trimmed
100 g (3.5 oz) Parmesan cheese, grated
100 g (3.5 oz) panko breadcrumbs
30 ml (2 tbsp) olive oil
15 ml (1 tbsp) melted butter
5 ml (1 tsp) lemon zest
2 cloves garlic, minced
5 ml (1 tsp) smoked paprika
5 ml (1 tsp) sea salt, plus more to taste
2.5 ml (½ tsp) black pepper
15 ml (1 tbsp) parsley, chopped
1 lemon, cut into wedges
15 ml (1 tbsp) honey (optional)

Instructions

Preheat & Prep: Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Season Potatoes: Toss potato wedges with olive oil, salt, and smoked paprika.
First Potato Roast: Spread potatoes on the sheet and roast for 10 minutes, then flip.
Prep Chicken: Season chicken thighs with salt, pepper, lemon zest, and garlic.
Make Crust: Combine Parmesan, panko, and olive oil. Coat chicken in the mixture.
Combine & Roast: Arrange chicken and green beans on the sheet, drizzle green beans with oil and salt.
Final Roast: Roast for 20–25 minutes, until chicken reaches 74°C (165°F).
Rest & Garnish: Let chicken rest for 5 minutes, then garnish with parsley and lemon.

Notes

For extra crispy potatoes, ensure they are cut into uniform wedges and have enough space on the baking sheet. Resting the chicken allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful result.
