One Dish Italian Chicken Bake

I posted this recipe last fall, but it matches up so well with this week’s sale at Publix that I decided it was time to pull it out again. It’s such a simple meal to put together, and perfect for a busy weeknight. Plus, you can get all the ingredients (including side dishes) for around just $7 this week, and possibly even less if you have a few of the items in your pantry (which I’m betting you do!)

recipe adapted from Kraft Foods

Ingredients

4 bone-in chicken pieces, 2-3 lbs. total
1 1/2 lb. baking potatoes (about 3), cut into very thin slices (I used my apple peeler to peel and slice these)
1/2 cup Italian Dressing
1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp. Italian Seasoning

Directions

Marinate chicken in Italian dressing, 3-4 hours, or overnight.
Peel and cut potatoes into very thin wedges. (If they’re not cut thinly enough, they won’t have enough time to cook through.)
Mix together chicken (with marinade) and potatoes. Sprinkle with Parmesan & Italian Seasoning, cover with foil.
Bake at 400 degrees for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until chicken is done (reaching 165 degrees), uncovering after the first thirty minutes.

(If you’re ready for a super early fall crafting project, here’s how I made “Give Thanks” blocks peeking out in the background.)
