Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 large red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 large zucchini, sliced into half-moons
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for the easiest cleanup imaginable. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Chop your chicken and vegetables into uniform sizes to ensure they all cook at the same rate. This consistency is the secret to a perfect roast.
  2. Place the cubed chicken and chopped vegetables directly onto the prepared baking sheet. Pour the seasoned oil mixture over the ingredients. Use your hands or large tongs to toss everything together until the chicken and veggies are thoroughly and evenly coated. Spread the mixture out into a single layer across the pan. Avoid overcrowding the pan; if the ingredients are too crowded, they will steam rather than roast and crisp up.
  3. Slide the baking sheet into the center rack of the oven. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the vegetables are tender-crisp with slightly charred edges. Halfway through the cooking time, give the pan a quick shake to ensure even browning. Once finished, remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley. Serve hot as is, or over a bed of fluffy rice or quinoa.
