Healthy and flavorful. Oven roasted chicken breasts and rainbow veggies are tender & juicy and ready in 15 minutes.
This is a long time favorite recipe of mine and I can’t believe I haven’t shared it yet. It’s a “one pan” type of dish where you basically place everything in the pan and bake. Minutes later, a hearty and delicious dinner platter is ready. The reason this dish cooks so quickly is because of the chicken is cut into small bite size pieces and the oven temperature. The results are charred veggies and juicy chicken.
This is great when you are hungry but lazy and are on the edge of calling take out. Instead, pop these healthy veggies and chicken in the oven and I assure you, they will be ready before the takeout is supposed to arrive. Plus, they are 1000x healthier and tastier. Serve these veggies with a side of rice, quinoa, or bread.
To being, chop the veggies and chicken and place on a small baking sheet. Season with olive oil, salt and pepper,Italiann seasoning, and paprika. Gently combine and bake for 15 minutes. See the video below for more details!

What kind of Italian seasoning does this want? Like packets found in the dressing aisle or the spices aisle? I can’t wait to try this!
Can I substitute the salt and use Mrs. Dash instead. I’m trying to lower my sodium intake.
Yes, you can!
Could I make this on the grill? Maybe in foil? How long do you think it would take?
You can grill on foil and it would take about 15-20 minutes with lid covered.
I just tried this recipe for dinner! I LOVED it! Thank you for sharing. ❤️
How long for 8 chicken breast? I would love to try this but we are a big family.
Can you prep this ahead of time?
You sure can!
How much is considered 1 serving for this meal?
Half the dish is a serving.
Really yummy and I hope I will enjoy this and have a great LUNCH!!!!
So easy and sooooo good!!!
Is the cooking time the same if I double the recipe!
Yes, as long as you use a large sheet pan!
Gonna try this tonight for my toddler. Is it spicy with the paprika? Can I leave that out and it still have flavor?
i look forward to recipes but the chicken was dry. I might need to cut it up more.. will try again. sue
I’m sorry the recipe did not work out for you, Susan. At just 15 minutes baking, I’m not sure how you dried out the chicken. What size did you cut it and did you change anything else in the recipe?
It was easy and delicious. Will make it again
This is the third time I’ve made this. Highly recommend. I added carrot and mushroom this time. Previously, fresh Poblano and yellow squash. DELISH and soooooo easy!!
Can you make this with fish?
Made this tonight and it was a hit! Made some alterations. Used about half the zucchini (my family isn’t a huge fan), lots more bell peppers and broccoli. Used a little extra seasonings to accommodate the extra veggies. Served with riced cauliflower for me and pasta for everyone else. Will definitely make again!
Can you use frozen vegetable medley and rotisserie chicken breasts?
I would not recommend it. Rotisserie chicken is already overcooked and it will be very dry and tasteless. Fresh veggies would be much better. Change out the ones you don’t like and add something you do like
I used frozen veggies and they turned out just fine. Was still tasty. 😊
Very good! I will definitely be making this for my family again!
This was DELICIOUS!! I added baby carrots, yellow squash, poblano and red pepper flakes and ate it as is. No rice or noodles. Will definitely make it into the regular rotation!! So easy and very thrifty too!!
I love this dish very easy and healthy
Thank you
Super easy and super good. Ate it with garlic basil wild rice and mushroom risotto. PERFECT with both. Also added a little tzatziki one time which was a delicious addition. Overall LOVED
This is really good. I add chicken, eggplant, zucchini, yellow squash, red onion, garlic, frozen green beans , frozen broccoli & cauliflower & I also add soy sauce at like the last 5 minutes of cooking.. No need for rice or salad. It’s good the way it is & it’s a whole meal in itself ..
The tast w exc
Tasty. I wasnt real careful with portions, so this made closer to 4 meals here
Sorry for the caps. No clue why my phone wont use lower. Grr.
A do over meal for sure
The website sometimes types in caps if it’s on mobile but it outputs normally. Enjoy! 😀
Se ve deLiociosa,
Love this recipe! Good on its own or on over lettuce for a salad. i mix up the veggies and use whatever i have on hand and it is always yummy!
SO easy and tasty!
I love delicious food. Its good for health. your Instructions are so helpful. basically, the image looks so fresh. I can’t wait. I will try these recipes. Thanks for sharing the essential tips.
Where is the video? couldn’t find it 🙁
EasY, healthy, quick, filling, colorful and DELICIOUS !!! Thank you
This was a great, healthy recipe. Reminded me of shishkabobs without the stick or grill!
This chicken and veggies Recipe is one of my favs!!! I have added different veggies:cauliflower, Asparagus, green beans, the morE tHe merrier! My family likes it served over rice or spaghetti (although i like it as it is). The leftovers make a great lunch! Love it!!!
Love THIS! Easy to make and my FAMILY loved it!
This was way better than I even expected. I pre-cooked some sweet potatoes in the microwave then roasted them under the pan. They were crispy because of the high temp. This one is a keeper!
Pre-cooking some sweet potatoes sounds like a fantastic idea!
I made this tonight for dinner. It was really good and easy. I did marinate the chicken in italian salad dressing.
THIS RECIPE HAS REALLY SAVED MY DAY. I WAS LOOKING FOR SOME RECIPES AND STUMBLED UPON THIS, TURNS OUT TO BE A SPICYY AND EASY ONE
does anyone know how much a serving is?
Looks good. aM TRYING TO EAT A LOT MORE VEGGIES. tHANKS FOR SHARING.
Anyone tried this with chicken thighs? Same timing?
I baked at 450 for 25 minutes.
Trying with chicken thighs right now,
Where is the video????????????
Just above where the RECIPE starts.
A dash cam is a small digital video camera that mounts to the dashboard and records the driver’s journey whenever the car is turned on and moving. And it can …
I loved this! My whole family, toddler included, ate it up! So easy and fast and i will be making it again and again!
tHIS IS AWESOME AND TASteful & nutritious tutorial i have taste it very soon.
I fo like seeing some of theses deliuos looking recEipes
I searched for “sheet plan meals” on google in the grocery store parking lot, and this and your sausage recipe came up. I was skeptical Chicken could Cook this quickly, but 15 min was the perfrct time. I Started wjrh ChOpped up red potatoes. That recipe said 25 min total. I should have cooked the potatoes for longeR before adding the rest of the chicken and veggies (i did 10 min First). But the rest is perfect. I used mccormick montreal chicken seasoning + salt because we Just moved and i’m replenishing my spices. IT’s delicious!!
This was fast and easy. My whole family loved it!
My family loved the meal so easy to make and taste delicious thank you
This was great be ause i get tired of cleaning so many pans. I made it with chicken and my veggies were delicious. I did not gave all of the correct spices but it was still delicious.i would recommen it to everyone.
Amazing! BeSt yet! I also used the zesty Italian and added mushrooms! Definitely a keepEr!
This was delicious. Whole FAMily approved. I didn’t measure seasoning, just added to my liking, and i also baked veggies for 15 mins and then added chicken for another 15 mins. I added whatever veggies i had. This will be made again. Served over egg noodles with garlic.
Can i prep this meal and freeze it? will it still have a nice taste?
OMG…mindblowing delicious! used “Good Seasonings zesty ITALIAn” packet and served over baby spinach adding crunch. This opened up a whole new world of dinner ideas for us! Been on Paleo for a month now and wanting to expand our ideas. Thanks!
Delicious and quick meal. We loved it! I added more veggies for variety, but that is the nice thing about this recipe you can add and subtract whatever you like and it will still be delicious!
Have to agree with some of the comments about adding additional seasoning. It Needed a little extra flavor for my family. They liked it but requested more spices next time. Going to try the lemon pepper or lemon juice idea next go round.
Sounds good; I think i’ll try this tomorrow.
Thoroughly enjoyed. followed everything as written. served this dish as a stand alone with mo more than a small glass of white wine. stayed on my diet. and got praises galore from my husband who ate all the leftovers before i could think of seconds. definitely a five star dish.
Nothing better than a delicious low-carb meal!
easy and delicious! if i could do it, anyone can do it, really 🙂
thanks for the recipe, you SAVED MY COLLEGE STUDENT STOMACH!
I used s&p w/Ranch dressing mix. This will be in our weekly rotatio.
Planning next week’s menu & can’t wait to try this!
Awesome recipe! I do not cook at all but i had a random urge to make my own food. so i googled an easy chicken and vegetable recipe and this was the first thing that came up. super easy and delicious! i did not have italian seasoning or paprika so i replaced those with red pepper, garlic salt, vegetable seasoning, and cayenne pepper. so yummy!!
Your seasoning sounds delicious!!
Made this last week, and it was AMAZING! Even my picky eater husband loved it! Thanks for an easy healthy delicious meal!
I made this last night for dinner with my husband and it turned out delicious! Thanks so much for the recipe. It also held up well for leftovers.
Yum, I’m happy to hear you both enjoyed it, Rachel <3
This is so simple and delicious. I make it at least once a week for my family, and it’s an easy meal served with rice for company. Love it!
Is the Italian seasoning a packet of dry Italian dressing and recipe mix, or is it actually the one on the seasoning and spice aisle with basil, oregano etc. in it?
hi Angie i too am trying to Figure out the same thing because i have both
I think she means the Italian herb blend found in the seasonings aisle, like basil, oregano,etc. But It may be tasty with your idea of powdered Italian salad dressing mix, but I’d go a little light with that at first. Someone suggested powdered ranch dressing mix– I’m gonna try that too.
I made this for dinner tonight and it is delicious and simple! I used Kickin’ Chicken seasoning and extra garlic powder. Forgot to add the peppers, and threw in butternut squash. It was so good! The family is going to love it! Husband just has to reheat tonight when he gets home! Perfect, thank you!
any one tried this in a crock pot? haven’t tried yet but looks yummy!!!
Made this tonight. It was delicious! My family is trying to eat healthier and incorporate more vegetables into our diet. This was tasty and healthy. We didn’t make any additional side, just the chicken and veggies. Fabulous flavor and relatively quick and easy.
Layla “you got me on my knees” with this recipe. I soaked the chicken in a salt sugar solution for 15 minutes and followed your instructions. Juicy and delicious!
I’m so glad you liked the chicken and veggies, Joe! It’s one of our favorite meals as well 🙂
What is the serving size? 1 cup?. By the way I just made this. I added asparagus to mine and used lemon pepper seasoning. So good!!! Thank you
The serving size is about a cup.
This is company worthy. Absolutely delicious and so easy. I always double the recipe and make a little extra of the oil and of the seasonings. When the veggies cook they release enough liquid to make a nice sauce. Five Stars. I have also made it using half chicken and half top sirloin.
Yum! sirloin with veggies sounds amazing <3
Do u change the italian seasoning when you make it with sirloin or keep everything exactly the same? I made it with chicken and was great! Im making it with sirloin tonight…. Any suggestions?
The seasoning is the same for sirloin as well! You can always change it if you’d like 🙂
This was so delicious, thank you!!! I thought, “there’s no way this is going to taste like anything” but the flavors were great, the spices didn’t get diluted, and I’m a huge fan of roasted broccoli already.
And FIFTEEN MINUTES! #lifechanging
Love this! I’ve made it many times now and it always tastes great. So quick and easy. Thanks
I don’t always leave comments on recipes I’ve tried but when I do, it’s probably because we loved it and I made it twice in one week. This totally didn’t seem like my thing but it’s good, fast and easy. It also packs well for lunches.
Does anyone know how many points this meal is with Weight watchers
7 smart pts
We absolutely love this recipe! It is so fast, easy, and delicious. I just throw in whatever vegetables I have on hand and voilà!
Very easy and delicious, I had a lemon on hand and squeezed a bit of juice on the veggies and it added a nice tang!
I absolutely love this meal! I changed it up a bit and used Lemon Pepper seasoning and it was amazing!!!
This meal is amazing!! It has become a weekly or bi-weekly staple in our house. I use more veggies than called for, 2-3 bell peppers of assorted colors, carrots sliced thin and tonight I’m also adding cauliflower, can’t wait! Even my picky kids love this meal. I bake it at 425 for about 30 minutes and it comes out perfectly! Thanks so much for the recipe, I highly recommend it!
Oh my! I found this recipe when searching Pinterest for low carb recipes to meal prep. Made it tonight. I doubled the entire recipe and threw in a couple of handfuls of baby bella mushrooms. Cooked on 500 for about 18 minutes per pan. I had to use three pans to keep things in one layer it made so much but it does cook down a lot. It is fantastic!! Will really enjoy my work lunches in the middle of the night this week! Thanks for a great recipe. I will be repeating this one!
Beautiful dish made this a few times, the second one came out better reduced oven to 220 degrees and cooked it for 30 minutes turning after 15 minutes. I add very littl olive oil and more veggies. Great hit in my house very healthy meal
Two questions:
Is 15 minutes long enough to cook the veggies?
You don’t cover, correct?
Hi Shannon,
I made it tonight and the veggies were fine (Because of the high heat). However, I added another chicken breast to it and the chicken on the bottom of the dish wasn’t cooked all the way so I added another 10 minutes. Also, the broccoli, if cut too large, will be very al dente if only cooked for 15 minutes.
Excellent and very easy to make. I added squeezed lemon after baking in the oven and while cooling. Used for meal prep lunches. I will do the same for dinner.
sin regard to Mickey’s question: has anyone added some type of liquid for a sauce?
Hello, how many servings does this make?
I added one more breast and it fed 3 of us and we have another meal left over.
This looks so good! Would be awesome for lunch meal prep too!
I LOVE this recipe!!! It has become a staple in our home. Thank you so much! I tweeked it just a bit, by using smoked sausage in lieu of chicken, and adding parboiled potatoes, as well as lemon pepper seasoning. I also doubled the veggie amount.
So I am on an oil-free diet right now. Just for two days … I haven’t cut oils out of my diet. Has anybody tried this without oil? Could I wrap it in foil for the first few minutes so that it doesn’t burn and then let it brown for the last few minutes? Any suggestions?
500 degrees seems a bit, did anyone try a bit lower temperature?
500 helps the chicken char and retain it’s moister but others have tried lower temperatures and it worked for them! The lowest I would recommend is 425F.
Just made this. I added garlic seasoning. I also added potatoes so I had to cook it about 30 minutes. I liked it. My sister said it needed something like a sauce. Will read other comments to see what others have done. Thanks for the recipe!
Also used frozen broccoli and cauliflower mix. I didn’t have bell pepper or zucchini. It needed more vegetables will add more next time I make it.
