INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Bread Crumbs
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 medium Zucchini
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/2 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine the bread crumbs, chopped parsley, thyme, salt, and pepper. Zest the half lemon and add the zest to the herb mixture.
Pat the chicken breast dry and brush lightly with olive oil. Squeeze half the lemon juice over the chicken and rub minced garlic evenly on both sides.
Coat the chicken breast with the herb and bread crumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Chop the zucchini and red bell pepper into bite-sized pieces. Toss them with a drizzle of olive oil, remaining lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in the center of the baking sheet and arrange the vegetables around it.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving with the roasted vegetables.
