Easy Chicken & Veggies

This is definitely my go-to meal. It really is so easy and quick too. I'm surprised my husband isn't tired of it yet since I cook it all the time. You can definitely customize it to what vegetables you like best.

Whenever I go grocery shopping I always get a 10lb bag of boneless, skinless chicken breast. They are quick to thaw and you can use it for so many things. This is what I start with and depending on how many people you are cooking for determines how many chicken breasts you want to cut up. For my husband and I, I usually cut up about 3-4 breasts into bite size pieces. This usually makes enough for leftovers too. For two people you could probably use 2-3 breasts. Next, you want to cut up your veggies. I normally like to use zucchini, green bell peppers, and sometimes tomatoes, but for this batch I just used 2 zucchini and 2 yellow squash from my husbands mimi's garden! I place all this in a big pan sprayed with some type of cooking spray. I have been using extra virgin olive oil non-stick cooking spray lately. After I spray the pan I place the chicken and vegetables on it. For seasonings I use salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. I just sprinkle all of these evenly over the chicken and veggies. I preheat my oven to 400 degrees and cook this for about 25-30 minutes, depending on your over. I would check it after about 20 minutes. You don't want to leave it in too long or the chicken will get dry. I always make some rice to go with it as well. I'm lazy and get the boil-in-bag 10 minute rice. I get the brown whole grain rice to be a little healthier.

See, super quick and easy! Like I said before you can always change up the vegetables and even the seasonings. This is just what I like and use. You will have to let me know if you try out this simple recipe! Enjoy!
