Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prep Chicken: Dry the chicken breasts and cut them into 1 ½ inch pieces. Combine with olive oil, minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, dried parsley, Italian seasoning, onion powder, paprika, seasoned salt, and black pepper. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Prepare Vegetables: Toss baby carrots and diced baby golden potatoes with olive oil and half the seasoning mix. Spread on prepared baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes.
  4. Add Broccoli: Stir the roasted vegetables and add broccoli florets, drizzling them with more olive oil and minced garlic. Roast together.
  5. Combine Chicken and Veggies: Spread marinated chicken across the pan and roast for an additional 15-20 minutes until chicken reaches internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  6. Finish: Broil for 1-2 minutes for extra color, then serve hot.
