Prepare the sauce

Put it together
- Return chicken and potatoes to the pan, giving them a good toss in the sauce to keep them from drying out in the oven.

- Spoon dijon sauce from the pan over the chicken and potatoes, garnish with freshly cracked black pepper and fresh herbs if desired, and serve.
Notes
This recipe can easily be doubled, simply follow directions as written but arrange browned chicken and potatoes on a rimmed sheet pan and pour sauce over chicken and potatoes before baking.
