Oven Roasted Chicken and Veggies
Description
Oven Roasted Chicken and Veggies features cubed boneless skinless chicken breasts cooked alongside an assortment of fresh vegetables, including red, green, and yellow bell peppers, red onion, zucchini, broccoli florets, and halved grape tomatoes. Seasonings such as Italian seasoning and Mrs. Dash Original Blend add herbaceous and savory notes while olive oil coats all ingredients to promote browning. The high temperature roasting at 475°F encourages a slight charring on the vegetables and fully cooks the chicken, ensuring juiciness inside and pleasant caramelized edges outside. The variety of vegetables contributes to a pleasing mix of textures and colors on the plate.
The dish can be served as a standalone meal or accompanied by simple sides like rice or crusty bread to soak up any juices. It fits well into dinners that emphasize whole foods and balanced portions of protein and vegetables.
