Prep:

Yield:
4 Servings

Ingredients

2 cups boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp Italian seasoning

Salt

1 cup mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, onions, broccoli)

1 lemon, quartered

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp dried thyme

Directions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and thyme until well combined. Add the chicken breasts and toss to coat evenly, then set aside.

Transfer the chicken and any accumulated juices to the prepared sheet pan, arranging it in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Meanwhile, prepare the mixed vegetables by tossing them in a little olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Add the vegetables to the sheet pan with the chicken and roast for an additional 5-7 minutes or until they’re tender. Remove from the oven, squeeze the quartered lemon over the top, and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Divide the chicken and vegetables between your plates and garnish with minced garlic before serving. Enjoy over mashed potatoes or rice for a complete meal.

Author tip: For an added pop of color and crunch, consider adding some cherry tomatoes and a sprinkle of parsley on top of the dish before serving.

Storage & Reheating

Store the leftover chicken and vegetables in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. To reheat, simply place the desired portion in the microwave or oven.
