A vibrant, easy-to-make dinner featuring tender chicken and colorful vegetables, all roasted on a single sheet pan for minimal cleanup. Perfect for busy weeknights.
Ingredients
- 1.5 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
- 1 medium bell pepper any color
- 1 small red onion chopped
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken cubes, broccoli, cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, and red onion.
- Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat all ingredients evenly.
- Spread the seasoned chicken and vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender-crisp. Ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Remove from oven, drizzle with fresh lemon juice, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving immediately.
Notes
Use any seasonal vegetables like broccoli, zucchini, or bell peppers. For extra flavor, marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or even overnight. Serve with a side of quinoa or rice if desired. Adjust seasoning to your preference.
