Ingredients

Proteins

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Vegetables

  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cups baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 carrots, sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped

Sauce and Seasoning

  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the chicken and vegetables evenly.
  2. Prepare the balsamic glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper until well combined to create a flavorful marinade and glaze.
  3. Arrange ingredients: On a large baking sheet, evenly spread out the chicken breasts and the chopped vegetables including broccoli florets, halved baby potatoes, sliced carrots, and chopped red bell pepper, ensuring they have enough space to roast properly.
  4. Brush with glaze: Use a brush or spoon to coat the chicken and vegetables generously with the balsamic mixture, making sure every piece is well covered to enhance flavor during roasting.
  5. Roast the dish: Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 30 to 35 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
  6. Garnish and serve: Remove from the oven, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the dish for a pop of color and fresh flavor, then serve immediately while hot.

Notes

  • For enhanced flavor, marinate the chicken in the balsamic mixture for 30 minutes prior to roasting.
  • You can substitute the vegetables with your favorites like zucchini or Brussels sprouts depending on seasonality and preference.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days to maintain freshness.
