Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Rinse the chicken inside and out under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels.
Rub the olive oil mixture all over the chicken, making sure to cover the entire exterior, and also inside the cavity for maximum flavor.
Cut the lemon in half and squeeze a bit of lemon juice over the chicken. Place the lemon halves inside the cavity of the chicken.
Place the chicken breast-side up on a roasting rack set over a roasting pan.
Prepare the vegetables by cutting the zucchini into slices, the bell peppers into strips, and separating the broccoli into florets.
Toss the prepared vegetables with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper to coat them evenly.
Spread the vegetables around the chicken in the roasting pan, allowing them to roast and absorb the chicken's flavors.
Roast the chicken and vegetables in the preheated oven for about 90 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear.
Remove the chicken from the oven, cover it loosely with aluminum foil, and let it rest for about 10 minutes before carving.
Serve the chicken slices with the roasted vegetables on the side for a delightful keto-friendly meal.
