  • Large bowl

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the chicken pieces, broccoli florets, chopped bell peppers, and red onion wedges.
  3. Drizzle the mixture with olive oil, then sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper, tossing until everything is evenly coated.
Cooking
  1. Spread the seasoned chicken and vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
  2. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender-crisp, flipping halfway through.
Serving
  1. Serve hot, optionally garnished with fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes before baking. You can also customize the vegetables based on what you have on hand, such as adding zucchini, carrots, or cherry tomatoes. Keep an eye on the cooking time, as it may vary depending on your oven and the size of your chicken and vegetable pieces.
