Ingredients¶
- 2 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 1 1/2 lb baby potatoes, halved
- 2 broccoli crowns, cut into florets
- 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced
- Kosher salt, for adult portions
- Black pepper, for adult portions
Instructions¶
- Heat oven to 425°F.
- Toss potatoes with olive oil and roast until browned and tender, about 30 to 40 minutes.
- Season chicken thighs with olive oil, garlic, Italian seasoning, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
- Cook chicken until done and tender, either on a sheet pan or in a skillet.
- Steam or roast broccoli until tender.
- Season adult portions with salt and pepper after setting aside the baby portion.
Baby-Led Weaning Adaptation¶
Baby portion¶
Chicken, potato, and broccoli can be offered from the family meal if prepared to the correct texture and set aside before adult salt is added.
Set aside before¶
- Adult salt
- Extra pepper or spicy seasoning
- Any added sugar or sweet glaze
Texture target¶
Soft enough to mash easily between fingers.
Cut or shape guidance¶
- Chicken: tender strips or shredded pieces appropriate for the baby's current grasp and chewing ability.
- Potato: soft wedges or large mashable pieces.
- Broccoli: very soft florets with enough stem to hold.
Allergen notes¶
No major allergen is intentionally included in this example. Check actual ingredients used at cooking time.
Choking-risk flags¶
- Do not serve firm or dry chunks of chicken.
- Do not serve hard potato pieces.
- Confirm broccoli stems are soft, not fibrous.
