Description

A comforting Lemon Garlic Chicken dish with tender potatoes and vibrant broccoli, perfect for busy weeknights.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Juice and zest of 2 lemons
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 medium-sized potatoes, halved
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Mix the lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  3. Add the chicken breasts to the bowl and let them sit for at least 15 minutes.
  4. Combine the halved potatoes and broccoli florets on a large sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then toss.
  5. Move the veggies to the sides of the pan and place the marinated chicken in the center.

  7. Sprinkle fresh parsley over the dish before serving.

Notes

Marinate the chicken ahead of time for better flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3–4 days.
