Lemon Garlic Chicken with Roasted Vegetables
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Zest and juice of 2 lemons
- 1 pound mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion), cut into chunks
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, pepper, and the zest and juice of 1 lemon.
- Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the chicken. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature, or up to 24 hours in the refrigerator.
- While the chicken is marinating, spread the mixed vegetables on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, dried thyme, red pepper flakes, and the zest and juice of 1 lemon. Toss to coat the vegetables evenly.
- Place the marinated chicken breasts on a separate baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Discard the marinade.
- Roast the chicken and vegetables in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, stirring the vegetables once halfway through cooking.
- Garnish the lemon garlic chicken with chopped fresh parsley and serve with the roasted vegetables. Enjoy!
