Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
• 1.5 tablespoons Honey
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 cups Cherry tomatoes
• 1 medium Zucchini
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 1 medium Red onion
• 2 tablespoons Fresh basil leaves (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.

Step 2

Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried Italian seasoning.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, and minced garlic. Set aside.

Step 4

Cut the zucchini into half-moon slices, the red bell pepper into strips, the red onion into wedges, and leave the cherry tomatoes whole.

Step 5

Place the prepared vegetables onto the baking sheet. Drizzle half of the balsamic mixture over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.

Step 6

Lay the seasoned chicken breasts on top of the vegetables and drizzle the remaining balsamic mixture over the chicken.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C) and the vegetables are tender. Stir the vegetables halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.

Step 8

Optional: For extra caramelization, broil the dish for 2-3 minutes once baking is complete.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the dish rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves, if desired, and serve hot.
