Frequently Asked Questions

Expand All:
How can I store the leftovers?

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat thoroughly in the oven or microwave before serving to maintain crispiness.

Can I substitute an ingredient?

Yes, you can substitute the chicken with turkey cutlets or tofu for a vegetarian option. For the potatoes, feel free to use sweet potatoes or any root vegetable you prefer.

What should I serve this with?

This dish pairs beautifully with a fresh green salad, steamed vegetables, or a side of garlic bread for a complete meal.

How do I make the chicken extra crispy?

For extra crispiness, ensure the chicken is patted dry before coating and use panko breadcrumbs instead of regular breadcrumbs for added texture.

Can I prepare this dish in advance?

You can marinate the chicken and prepare the garlic potatoes a few hours in advance. However, it is best to cook them just before serving for optimal crispiness.

What can I use instead of Parmesan cheese?

If you're looking for a dairy-free option, you can use nutritional yeast or a plant-based cheese alternative that melts well.

How long does it take to cook the chicken?

Cooking the chicken typically takes about 20-25 minutes at 400°F (200°C), depending on the thickness of the cutlets.

Is this dish suitable for meal prep?

Yes, this recipe is great for meal prep! Just store the chicken and potatoes in separate containers for easy reheating throughout the week.

What can I do if I don't have roasted garlic?

If you don't have roasted garlic, you can use minced fresh garlic; just add it to the potatoes before roasting for a flavorful alternative.

Can I use skin-on chicken for this recipe?

Absolutely! Skin-on chicken will add extra flavor and richness to the dish, but keep in mind it may require a longer cooking time.
