SHEET-PAN PAPRIKA CHICKEN WITH TOMATOES AND PARMESAN
This deeply savory, weeknight-friendly sheet-pan chicken is worth buying a new jar of sweet paprika for, especially if you can't remember when you got the one in your spice drawer (for those Fourth of July deviled eggs several summers ago?).The fresher the spices, the more intensely flavorful the dish. This one is as pretty as it is complex, with a mix of colorful cherry tomatoes and peppers that soften and absorb all the chicken juices as they roast. Serve it with something to catch the saucy tomatoes: Crusty bread, polenta or couscous all work well.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Season chicken all over with salt, and place it on a rimmed baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, stir together olive oil, vinegar, garlic, paprika, Espelette and oregano. Pour over chicken, tossing to coat.
- Add tomatoes, poblano and sweet peppers to baking sheet, spread vegetables around the chicken. Season vegetables lightly with salt and drizzle with a little more olive oil. Sprinkle Parmesan all over chicken and vegetables.
- Roast until chicken is golden, crisp and cooked through, 25 to 35 minutes. Stir the vegetables halfway through cooking but don't disturb the chicken. If white meat is done before dark meat, remove it as it finishes cooking.
- Transfer chicken to plates. Stir vegetables around in pan, scraping up all the delicious browned bits from the bottom and sides of pan, and stir in the parsley and black pepper to taste. Taste and add salt if needed, and a drizzle of vinegar if you like. Spoon vegetables over the chicken to serve.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
- Choose ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your dish will be. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and have no blemishes.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the chicken breasts, make sure you don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and will result in steamed chicken instead of seared chicken.
- Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet: A well-seasoned cast iron skillet will help you get a nice sear on the chicken breasts. If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a regular nonstick skillet, but make sure it's heated over medium-high heat before adding the chicken.
- Cook the chicken breasts until they are cooked through: Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken breasts. The chicken is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken breasts rest before serving: Once the chicken breasts are cooked through, let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the chicken, resulting in more tender and flavorful chicken.
Conclusion:
This recipe for chicken breasts with garbanzo beans, tomatoes, and smoked paprika is a flavorful and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is seared until golden brown and then simmered in a flavorful sauce made with tomatoes, garbanzo beans, and smoked paprika. Serve the chicken breasts over rice or quinoa for a complete meal.
