Instructions
1
|
Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
|
Toss the gnocchi, corn, tomatoes, and onions with olive oil, lime, chili powder, and salt, then spread them into one layer on the sheet pan.
3
|
Scoot some of the gnocchi and veggies aside to make 2 separate spaces in the middle of the sheet pan in which to place the chicken breasts.
4
|
Place the chicken breasts into the gaps you made, then season each with olive oil, chili powder, and salt.
5
|
Bake for 20 minutes, then toss the veggies and gnocchi to make sure they’re evenly cooking.
6
|
Check the doneness of the chicken with an instant read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of each breast. The chicken breasts should register 155°F to 160°F if they’re done (they’ll continue to cook once removed from the oven). If the chicken is done, remove it from the oven, place it on a plate, and cover it with foil to keep warm. If it’s not done cooking, leave it on the tray with the veggies and gnocchi.
7
|
Bake the gnocchi and veggies (and chicken if it’s not done) for another 10 minutes.
8
|
Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Slice the chicken into pieces, then place it back on the sheet pan.
9
|
Top the chicken, gnocchi, and veggies with cilantro and crumbled cotija cheese. Serve immediately.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Gnocchi Golden Perfection 🥔Pat gnocchi dry before roasting to ensure a crispy exterior and prevent steaming. A light coating of olive oil will help achieve that perfect golden-brown crunch.
- Sheet Pan Strategic Placement 🍽️Arrange chicken and vegetables with space between them to allow proper caramelization and prevent overcrowding. This ensures even cooking and helps develop deeper flavor profiles.
- Corn Kernel Magic 🌽Use fresh or quick-thawed corn kernels and char them slightly for a smoky sweetness that elevates the entire dish. Spreading kernels in a single layer maximizes their caramelization potential.
- Citrus Brightness Hack 🍋Add lime juice after roasting to preserve its fresh, bright flavor and prevent it from becoming bitter. The acid will help cut through the richness of the chicken and cheese.
- Cotija Cheese Pro Tip 🧀Crumble cotija cheese over the dish immediately after removing from the oven so it slightly melts but retains its signature crumbly texture. This helps distribute flavor more evenly.
