How to make Sheet Pan Baked Balsamic Chicken with Potatoes
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 425 degrees F. Using foil, line a large rimmed baking sheet and lightly grease with cooking spray. Set aside.
Step 2: In a bowl, place the potatoes along with oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the potatoes. Then, transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the oven for about 15 minutes.
Step 3: Meanwhile, boil the balsamic vinegar in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the brown sugar and cook for about 3 minutes until the mixture has slightly thickened, stirring continuously. When done, take away from the heat and set aside.
Step 4: Using cooking spray, lightly grease the chicken breasts and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Put them over the potatoes, then brush with half of the balsamic vinegar, reserving the other half for later. Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes.
Step 5: While the chicken and potatoes are in the oven, mix the tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, oil, and salt.
Step 6: Take the baking sheet out of the oven, then brush the chicken with the reserved glaze, and around the chicken, add the tomatoes. Return to the oven and continue to bake for another 5 to 8 minutes until the internal temperature of the chicken reached 165 degrees F.
Step 7: When done, take away from the oven and drizzle the chicken with the rest of the balsamic vinegar. Before serving, garnish with basil. Enjoy with mozzarella cheese.
