Baked Chicken Breasts and Vegetables

Description

I got in from work one night and wanted something a little lighter. I had some frozen chicken breasts and fresh veggies. I added the spices at random and it turned out really good, I thought. There were no complaints from the others either.

Ingredients

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 8 carrots, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
  • 4 green bell peppers, sliced
  • 8 stalks celery, chopped
  • 8 green onions, chopped
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon lemon pepper
  • 4 pinches freshly ground black pepper, or to taste

  2. Arrange chicken breasts on a baking sheet; spread carrots
  3. celery
  4. green onion
  5. bell pepper
  6. and parsley around chicken. Drizzle olive oil over chicken and vegetables; season with Italian seasoning
  7. chili powder
  8. lemon pepper

  10. and black pepper.
