Ingredients
Scale
- 4 chicken breasts or thighs (boneless, skinless)
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 bell peppers (any color, sliced)
- 1 zucchini (sliced)
- 1 red onion (sliced)
- 2 carrots (peeled and cut into thin rounds)
- 1 sweet potato (optional, peeled and cubed)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning (optional)
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice (optional)
- 2 tbsp grated parmesan (optional)
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will ensure a crispy, golden finish on your chicken and veggies.
- Step 2: Season the chicken breasts or thighs with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and Italian seasoning (if using). You can marinate the chicken for 30 minutes before cooking for extra flavor, but it’s optional.
- Step 3: Wash and chop the vegetables. Slice the bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion into even strips. Peel and slice the carrots into rounds, and cube the sweet potato if you’re using it. Cut the broccoli into small florets.
- Step 4: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Arrange the chicken pieces in the center of the pan and spread the vegetables around the chicken in a single layer.
- Step 5: Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken and vegetables. Toss the veggies to coat them evenly, ensuring that they absorb the seasoning and oil.
- Step 6: Place the pan in the oven and roast for 25–30 minutes. Halfway through, flip the chicken to ensure even cooking. Check the chicken with a meat thermometer – it should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Step 7: The vegetables should be tender and slightly browned at the edges. If the potatoes or carrots are not fully cooked, allow them to roast for another 10–15 minutes.
- Step 8: Once everything is cooked, remove from the oven. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the chicken and vegetables for a zesty kick. Optionally, sprinkle grated parmesan for extra flavor.
- Step 9: Serve the chicken and roasted vegetables immediately. Enjoy your flavorful and healthy one pan meal!
