Instructions
Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Wash and dry all produce. Cut potatoes into 1/2-inch pieces.Add potatoes and 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.Roast in the middle of the oven, until the bottom side is golden-brown, 10-12 min. (NOTE: Potatoes will finish cooking with veggies in step 5.)
Meanwhile, roughly chop parsley.Peel, then cut shallots into 1-inch pieces.Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch half-moons.Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces. Add 2 tsp (4 tsp) oil, shallots, zucchini and peppers to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. Set aside.
Combine chicken, half the parsley, half the Parmesan, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) pepper in a large bowl.Divide chicken mixture into 2 equal-sized portions (4 portions for 4 ppl).Form each portion into a 1-inch-thick patty. (TIP: Lightly wet hands to form patties!)
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 2 tsp oil, then patties. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook patties in 2 batches if needed, using 2 tsp oil per batch.) Sear until golden-brown on both sides, 2-3 min. Transfer to an 8x8-inch baking dish. Spoon marinara sauce over tops of patties, then top with mozzarella. Bake in the top of the oven until cheese is melted and patties are cooked through, 12-14 min.**
When golden-brown on one side, flip potatoes.Add veggies from the medium bowl to the baking sheet with potatoes. Arrange in a single layer.Return the baking sheet to the oven. Roast until veggies are tender-crisp and potatoes are tender, 12-14 min.
Sprinkle remaining parsley and remaining Parmesan over veggies, then toss to combine.Divide veggies and patties between plates.Top patties with any remaining sauce from the baking dish.
