Tonight why not make dinner extra easy with the best roasted chicken and vegetables!

It couldn’t be easier to marinate the chicken while you chop up your favorite veggies.  Season the veggies and then put them all in a cookie sheet lined with aluminum foil. Bake for 20-30 minutes.  That’s all there is to it.  And roasted chicken and vegetables is even more delicious for lunches during the week!  You can adapt this recipe with your favorite vegetables or use the ones suggested.  It couldn’t be easier!

2 lbs. chicken tenders cut into 1” pieces

Medium zucchini, (2) cut into 1” pieces

Pint of cherry or grape tomatoes, optionally sliced in half

1 medium sweet onion, sliced

1 large red pepper, cut in 1” pieces

Clove of garlic, minced

1 tsp. oregano

2 tbsps. chopped fresh parsley

1 tsp. thyme

1 tsp. rosemary

2 tbsps. Extra virgin olive oil
