👩‍🍳 Instructions

1
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
In a medium bowl, combine cubed chicken with 1 tbsp olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, oregano, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
3
In a separate large bowl, combine broccoli florets, bell pepper strips, red onion wedges, and zucchini slices. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, remaining 1/4 tsp salt, and remaining 1/4 tsp black pepper. Toss gently to coat.
4
Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space in the center. Arrange the seasoned chicken cubes evenly among the vegetables. Scatter cherry tomatoes over the pan.
5
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F / 74°C) and vegetables are tender-crisp and lightly caramelized. Toss ingredients halfway through cooking for even browning.
6
Remove from oven. Drizzle with fresh lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil. Garnish generously with fresh chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
