Ingredients

680 grams boneless, skinless chicken thighs
450 grams tiny new potatoes, cut into 2.5 cm pieces
475 grams cherry tomatoes
10 milliliters olive oil
2.5 grams salt, or more to taste
2.5 grams ground black pepper, or more to taste
120 milliliters pesto
15 milliliters chopped fresh basil, or to taste

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 220 degrees C (425 degrees F). Line a 25x38 cm baking pan with aluminum foil.
Step 2
Place the chicken, potatoes, and cherry tomatoes in a single layer on the prepared pan. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Roast in the preheated oven until vegetables are tender and chicken is cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chicken should read at least 74 degrees C (165 degrees F).
Step 4
Serve the Mediterranean chicken and potato bake with a dollop of pesto and a sprinkle of fresh basil.
