Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs

  • 2 cups broccoli florets

  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced

  • 1 zucchini, sliced into half-moons

  • 1 yellow squash, sliced

  • 1/2 red onion, sliced

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes

  • 3 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

  • 1 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/2 tsp onion powder

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

 

  • Fresh parsley or grated Parmesan, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large sheet pan or line with parchment paper.

  2. Prep the chicken: Pat chicken dry and place on the sheet pan. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil and season with half the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

  3. Prep the veggies: In a large bowl, toss the vegetables with remaining 2 tbsp olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and the rest of the seasonings.

  4. Assemble: Spread vegetables evenly around the chicken on the sheet pan.

  5. Roast: Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) internal temperature and veggies are tender and slightly caramelized.

  6. Finish: Garnish with fresh parsley or a sprinkle of Parmesan if desired. Serve hot.


Notes

  • For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the olive oil and seasonings for 30 minutes before baking.

  • Swap in other vegetables like green beans, mushrooms, or carrots based on what you have.

 

  • Great served over rice, pasta, or quinoa.
