Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken tenders
- 2 cups green beans, trimmed
- 1 cup grape tomatoes
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will ensure that your chicken tenders cook evenly and the vegetables roast perfectly.
- While the oven is preheating, prepare your ingredients. Trim the green beans by snapping off the ends, and rinse them under cold water. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken tenders with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss the chicken tenders until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
- Spread the seasoned chicken tenders in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Ensure that they are not overlapping to allow for even cooking.
- In the same mixing bowl, add the trimmed green beans and grape tomatoes. Drizzle a little more olive oil over the vegetables, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat the vegetables evenly.
- Arrange the green beans and grape tomatoes around the chicken tenders on the baking sheet. Make sure to leave some space between the chicken and vegetables for proper roasting.
- Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the chicken tenders and the vegetables. This will create a deliciously cheesy crust as they roast.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C) and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Once cooked, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. This will allow the juices in the chicken to redistribute, keeping it moist.
- Serve the roasted garlic Parmesan chicken tenders with the green beans and grape tomatoes on the side. Enjoy your delicious one-sheet pan meal!
Tips
- Prep Ahead: To save time, you can prep your ingredients in advance. Trim the green beans and mince the garlic the night before, so everything is ready to go when you're ready to cook.
- Even Cooking: Make sure to spread the chicken tenders and vegetables out in a single layer on the baking sheet. This allows them to roast evenly and achieve that perfect caramelization.
- Customize Your Veggies: Feel free to swap out the green beans and grape tomatoes for your favorite vegetables. Bell peppers, zucchini, or asparagus would work beautifully in this recipe!
- Check for Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure your chicken is fully cooked. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
- Let It Rest: After removing the pan from the oven, allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving. This helps keep the chicken juicy and flavorful.
- Serve with a Side: For an extra touch, consider serving this dish with a side of crusty bread or a fresh salad to complement the meal.
- Store Leftovers: If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave for a quick meal!
