Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and season both sides with 1 teaspoon of salt, 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of paprika.
In a large oven-safe skillet or sheet pan, drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil and spread it evenly.
Place the chicken breasts in the pan and sear them over medium heat for 2-3 minutes on each side, just until lightly browned. Remove the chicken and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, minced garlic, cherry tomatoes, zucchini rounds, diced bell pepper, and broccoli florets. Stir to coat the vegetables in the oil.
Season the vegetables with 2 teaspoons of dried Italian seasoning and mix well.
Nestle the seared chicken breasts back into the pan with the vegetables.
Transfer the skillet or sheet pan to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the vegetables are tender.
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve with optional lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness.
