Quick, Easy and Clean Roasted Chicken and Veggies!

Yesterday we had a busy day and the last thing I wanted to do was spend an hour cooking dinner. BUT I also didn't want to be tempted to go out and get something that would not be a healthy choice for our family.  So, we did this awesome quick and easy recipe.

The entire family loved it and I hope you will enjoy it as well.

Quick, Easy and Clean Roasted Chicken and Veggies

Ingredients:
***Note:  I doubled this recipe for my family of 4

2 Chicken breasts, chopped
1 cup bell pepper, chopped (any colors you like) (I used red and orange)
1/2 red onion
1 zucchini, chopped
1 cup broccoli florets
1/2 cup chopped grape/plum tomatoes
2 TBSP olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp Paprika

Optional:  Quinoa

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.

Chop all the veggies into larger pieces.  On another cutting board chop the chicken into cubes.

Place the chicken and veggies in a medium roasting dish or sheet pan.  Add the olive oil, salt and pepper, italian seasoning, and paprika.  Toss to combine.

Bake for 15 minutes or until the veggies are charred and the chicken is cooked. (because I doubled the recipe and cooked it in a dutch oven it took closer to 30 minutes).  Enjoy with brown rice, quinoa, pasta, or a salad. 

We had ours with Quinoa and it was delicious!
