Preheat the Oven:
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or grease lightly.
Prepare the Chicken:
Pat chicken dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Rub chicken with olive oil, then coat evenly with the seasoning mixture.
Prepare the Potatoes:
In a large bowl, toss halved potatoes with olive oil, garlic, Parmesan, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Assemble and Bake:
Place seasoned chicken on one side of the baking sheet. Spread potatoes evenly on the other side in a single layer. Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping potatoes halfway through. Check that the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) with a meat thermometer.
Optional Finishing Touch:
In the last 5 minutes, sprinkle extra Parmesan over chicken and potatoes. Broil for a golden, crispy crust.
Garnish & Serve:
Remove from oven and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve hot and enjoy!
