Ingredients

• 4 (about 1 lb total) boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 (zested and juiced) lemon
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 1 tbsp, chopped fresh rosemary
• 1 tbsp, chopped fresh thyme
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 2 medium, spiralized zucchini
• 1, sliced red bell pepper
• 1 cup, halved cherry tomatoes
• 1/2 cup broccoli florets

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 lemon zest, 1 lemon juice, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp rosemary, 1 tbsp thyme, 1/2 tsp sea salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper to form a marinade. Place 4 chicken breasts in a shallow dish, pour marinade over them, and coat evenly; let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
2. Step 2: Arrange 2 spiralized zucchinis, 1 sliced red bell pepper, 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes, and 1/2 cup broccoli florets on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and toss until coated. Roast in a preheated 400°F (200°C) oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring once after 10 minutes, until vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
3. Step 3: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the marinated chicken breasts (discarding excess marinade), and cook for 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), basting occasionally with reserved marinade. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
