Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat chicken thighs dry, then toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp dried oregano, 1/4 tsp sea salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
  2. Step 2: Slice zucchini into 1/4-inch thick half-moons and cut bell peppers into 1-inch pieces. Toss vegetables with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp dried oregano, and 1/4 tsp sea salt.
  3. Step 3: Arrange chicken and vegetables in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast for 25 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) internally and vegetables are tender with golden edges.
  4. Step 4: Let rest 5 minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute, ensuring moist chicken and perfectly caramelized vegetables.
