Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 lb baby potatoes, halved or quartered if large
- 1 lb broccoli florets
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 lemon, half juiced, half sliced
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, toss the chicken pieces with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, half of the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- In the same bowl (no need to wash!), add the potatoes, broccoli, and red onion. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, the rest of the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Add the lemon juice and toss everything to coat evenly.
- Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a large baking sheet or in a roasting pan.
- Nestle the seasoned chicken pieces among the vegetables.
- Arrange the lemon slices over the chicken and vegetables.
- Roast for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Serve hot, directly from the pan.
Notes
- For crispier potatoes, you can parboil them for about 5-7 minutes before tossing them with the other vegetables.
- Feel free to substitute other vegetables like bell peppers, carrots, or zucchini.
- If you prefer a stronger herb flavor, you can add fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme during the last 10 minutes of roasting.
