Important Recipe Notes

  • You can use boneless, skinless chicken thighs instead of breasts if you prefer more juicy, tender meat. Cooking time may vary slightly.
  • Baby yellow potatoes work best, but you can also use red potatoes or small Yukon golds. Cut them evenly for even cooking.
  • Adds tang and mild spice. You can adjust the amount or skip the juice if you prefer a milder flavor.
  • If you don’t have mozzarella, you can use provolone or cheddar for a different taste.
  • You can prep the chicken and potatoes in the bowl ahead of time, then cover and refrigerate until ready to bake.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 2–3 days. Reheat in the oven for best texture.
  • Sprinkle chopped parsley on top before serving.
