Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 pounds)
  • 2 cups baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 cups carrots, sliced into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Juice of 1 lemon

How to Make Herb-Roasted Chicken with Seasonal Vegetables

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Whisk until well blended.
  3. Add the chicken breasts to the bowl, ensuring they are evenly coated with the herb mixture. Let them marinate for about 10 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.
  4. In a separate bowl, toss the baby potatoes and carrots with a splash of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  5. Spread the seasoned chicken breasts on one side of the prepared baking sheet. On the other side, arrange the potatoes and carrots in a single layer.
  6. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, add the broccoli florets to the baking sheet, tossing them with any remaining olive oil mixture.
  7. Return to the oven and roast for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
  8. Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with the roasted vegetables.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Use fresh herbs for the most vibrant flavor; dried herbs can work in a pinch, but they won’t have the same impact.
  • Make sure to cut the vegetables into uniform sizes for even cooking.
  • If you prefer crispy skin, consider searing the chicken breasts in a hot skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side before transferring to the oven.

Easy Variations

  • Swap the vegetables based on what’s in season or what you have on hand; zucchini, bell peppers, or asparagus are great substitutes.
  • For a spicier kick, add red pepper flakes to the herb mixture.
  • Use bone-in chicken thighs for a richer flavor and juiciness.

What to Serve With It

  • A light green salad with a citrus vinaigrette
  • Quinoa or couscous for added texture
  • Crusty bread to soak up the delicious juices

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply place in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15 minutes or until warmed through.
