Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into chunks
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup zucchini, sliced
  • 1/2 cup red onion, chopped
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, combine the 2 cut into chunks boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, 1 cup broccoli florets, 1 cup chopped bell pepper, 1 cup sliced zucchini, and 1/2 cup chopped red onion.

  3. 3

    Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil and sprinkle with 1 tsp Italian seasoning, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Toss until everything is evenly coated.

  4. 4

    Spread the mixture in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan, as this will cause the vegetables to steam rather than roast.

  5. 5

    Place in the preheated oven and roast for 15 minutes.

  6. 6

    Remove from the oven, stir the mixture to ensure even cooking, and return to the oven for another 10-15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and starting to caramelize at the edges.

  7. 7

    Check that the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) using a meat thermometer. If not, return to the oven for a few more minutes until the safe temperature is reached.

  8. 8

    Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. This dish can be served on its own or over rice, quinoa, or with a side salad.
