I mean the one you do when you want something easy to do, but not when you're tired at the point you microwave a frozen-meal, or just cut down a piece of cheese and put it in a bread

This is called a tray bake, and it's great. I recommend chucking some (chopped) vegetables in with it: tomatoes on the vine, carrots, broccoli, asparagus, Brussel sprouts, cauliflower, onion, garlic... Limitless possibilities.

You can also do this with salmon (gotta be a bit more careful with timing on that). Or bacon. Or do sweet potato, or pumpkin.

All of this is true, the chicken and potato is just the lazy version. Lots of different vegetables can be added to this but the cooking time gets tricky because a lot of stuff cooks at different rates.
