Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Place 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a single layer on a baking sheet, then drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper, rubbing to coat evenly.
  2. Step 2: Add 1 lb halved baby potatoes and 1 bunch trimmed asparagus (cut into 2-inch pieces) around the chicken. Scatter 3 minced garlic cloves over the vegetables.
  3. Step 3: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 lemon zest, 2 tbsp lemon juice, and 2 tbsp fresh dill; pour over the chicken and vegetables, then toss to coat.
  4. Step 4: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) internally and vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork.
