Add chicken to pan with potatoes and cauliflower. Spoon and spread remaining mixture over chicken. Roast 15 to 17 minutes longer or until juice of chicken is clear when thickest part is cut (at least 165°F) and potatoes are browned and fork-tender. Top chicken, potatoes and cauliflower with cheese; bake 1 to 2 minutes or until cheese melts. Top with cilantro and green onions.
Expert Tips
- If potatoes are large, cut each into 6 wedges instead of 4. Each piece should be about the same size for even cooking.
