Chicken with potatoes is one of the most classic dinners of all time. It’s budget friendly, nutritious, and really easy to cook.
I like to prepare a few of these Italian Herb Chicken & Potatoes Freezer Meals at the beginning of the month and keep them on hand.
It’s perfect for busy professionals, new moms, or even those who are recovering for surgery.
I like to roast both potatoes and carrots in the recipe, but you can just do potatoes or add other vegetables like broccoli.
Italian Herb Roasted Chicken & Potatoes Freezer Meal Ingredients
- Chicken Legs or Thighs
- Red Potatoes
- Carrots
- Onion
- Olive Oil
- Dried Italian Herbs
- Minced Garlic
- Salt
- Pepper
You can use legs, thighs, or some combination of the two in this recipe. We prefer legs.
If your potatoes are large, be sure to cut them into quarters so that they cook evenly. You should also cut any thick carrots into smaller chunks so they cook through.
Make sure to wrap your pan with foil really well. I do two layers of it, tightly wrapped.
This herb roasted chicken & potatoes freezer meal will stay good for up to six months in the freezer.

- Yield: 5
- Category: American
- Cuisine: Dinner
Ingredients
1.5 Tablespoons Olive Oil
2 tsp Dried Italian Herbs
1 tsp Minced Garlic
1 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Pepper
2 lbs Chicken Legs or Thighs
1.5 lbs Red Potatoes
1 lb Carrots
1 Yellow Onion
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, Italian herbs, minced garlic, salt and pepper.
Add the chicken legs, potatoes, carrots, and onions to a large bowl. Drizzle the olive oil/herb mixture over the top, then gently toss until everything is well coated.
Take a 9×13 inch disposable pan and coat it with non-stick spray. Add the chicken and veggie mixture then cover tightly with foil (I double layer it). Label, then store in the freezer.
Thaw in the refrigerator the night before cooking. When ready to serve, cook at 375 F for about 60 minutes – until the chicken’s internal temperature is 165 F and the vegetables are cooked through.
