Today's Featured Recipe: One-Pan Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken and Vegetables
This recipe is a one-pan wonder, meaning less cleanup and maximum flavor! It's packed with fresh herbs, juicy chicken, and tender roasted vegetables. Perfect for a healthy and satisfying dinner.
Ingredients:
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 lb baby potatoes, halved or quartered if large
- 1 lb broccoli florets
- 1 lemon, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp dried Italian herbs (or a mix of oregano, basil, thyme)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures your chicken and vegetables cook evenly.
- Prepare the vegetables: Wash and chop your potatoes and broccoli. Make sure the pieces are roughly the same size for even cooking.
- Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, toss the chicken, potatoes, and broccoli with olive oil, Italian herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Ensure everything is well coated.
- Arrange on a baking sheet: Spread the chicken and vegetables in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Arrange the lemon slices amongst the chicken and vegetables.
- Roast: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. Internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).
- Serve: Serve immediately and enjoy!
Tips and Variations:
- Add other vegetables: Feel free to add other vegetables like carrots, bell peppers, or zucchini.
- Use fresh herbs: If you have fresh herbs on hand, use about 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh herbs instead of the dried herbs.
- Spice it up: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat.
- Make it a complete meal: Serve with a side of rice or quinoa for a more substantial meal.
