Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 0.25 cups balsamic vinegar
- 0.25 cups olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 1 piece red bell pepper, diced
- 2 pieces zucchini, sliced into rounds
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 piece red onion, sliced
Directions
Step 1
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
Step 2
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over them. Reserve the other half for later use. Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
Step 3
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 4
On a large baking sheet, arrange the diced red bell pepper, zucchini rounds, cherry tomato halves, and sliced red onion. Drizzle the reserved marinade over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.
Step 5
Push the vegetables to the edges of the baking sheet to create space in the center. Place the marinated chicken breasts in the center of the sheet.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
Step 7
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 8
Slice the chicken breasts and serve with the roasted vegetables. Optionally, drizzle with additional balsamic vinegar for extra flavor.
