Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and Italian seasoning to create a marinade.
Place the chicken tenderloins in a large mixing bowl and pour half of the marinade over them. Toss to coat thoroughly and set aside to marinate while preparing the vegetables.
Wash and chop the red bell pepper, zucchini, yellow squash, red onion, and carrots into bite-sized pieces. Ensure they are roughly similar in size for even cooking.
Transfer the chopped vegetables to a separate bowl and pour the remaining marinade over them. Toss until all the veggies are evenly coated.
Spread the marinated vegetables in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Add the chicken tenderloins on top of the vegetables.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the vegetables are tender.
Remove from oven and let rest for 2-3 minutes. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy this healthy, well-balanced meal!
