Main ingredients

2 pieces chicken breasts Juicy and tender, ideal for roasting.
1 tablespoon olive oil Provides healthy fats and enhances flavor.
1 teaspoon garlic powder Adds aromatic flavor.
1 teaspoon paprika Gives a mild heat and smokiness.
to taste Salt and pepper Adjust based on preference.
2 cups vegetables of your choice (e.g., broccoli, bell peppers, zucchini, carrots) Choose seasonal vegetables for best flavor.

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel.
Rub the chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the seasoned chicken in the center and surround it with your choice of vegetables.

Cooking

Roast everything in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes.
Ensure the chicken is cooked through, registering an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C), and the vegetables are tender yet crisp.
Remove from the oven, allow it to rest briefly, and serve hot.

For extra flavor, let the chicken marinate for a few hours, add fresh herbs, or try grilling instead of roasting.
