Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 medium Zucchini, sliced into rounds
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced
- 0.25 cup Low-sodium chicken broth
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or a small amount of olive oil.
Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, pepper, and paprika, then set them aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, rosemary, and thyme.
Arrange the zucchini slices, cherry tomatoes, and red bell pepper slices in a single layer on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Place the seasoned chicken breasts on top of the vegetables.
Drizzle the olive oil herb mixture evenly over the chicken and vegetables.
Pour the chicken broth around the edges of the dish to help keep the vegetables moist while baking.
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired and serve warm.
