Ingredients
- 1 pound baby Yukon Gold potatoes halved or quartered into bite-sized pieces
- 4 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 1 to 1.25 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast diced into bite-sized pieces
- 1 red bell pepper seeded and diced into bite-sized strips
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt or to taste
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or to taste
- 8 ounces salsa I used Trader Joe's Organic Thick and Chunky Salsa and recommend something on the thicker and chunkier side
- 2 tablespoons lime juice optional and to taste
- 1 to 2 tablespoons cilantro optional for garnishing
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F (if you have convection, use it), line a baking sheet with foil for easier cleanup, add the potatoes, evenly drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil, arrange the potatoes so the cut side is face down, and bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove the sheet pan from the oven, add the chicken, red peppers, evenly drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, evenly sprinkle with the cumin, salt, pepper, and toss with a spatula to evenly coat all ingredients. Position potatoes so the cut side is now face up, which will make it easier for the salsa to adhere.
- Evenly spoon the salsa over all ingredients, return sheet pan to the oven, and bake for about 15 minutes, or until potatoes are fork-tender and the chicken is done and cooked through.
- Optionally, evenly drizzle with lime juice and optionally sprinkle with cilantro before serving.
