Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. Place 2 cups broccoli florets on a baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, and sprinkle with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Roast for 20 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
- Step 2: While vegetables roast, season 1 large chicken breast with 1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and 1 tsp dried oregano. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
