Description

Make a simple, healthy, and high-protein dinner using just one sheet pan. This low-carb meal requires minimal cleanup and is perfect for busy weeknights.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 chicken breasts, cubed large chunks
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 zucchini, sliced thick halfmoons
  • 1 stalk broccoli, cut into small florets
  • 1/2 red onion, sliced into big chunks
  • 1 large bell pepper, sliced into chunks
  • 1/2 tsp each garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried oregano, chili powder
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumb
  • 1/3 cup grated pecorino
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Chili pepper flakes and basil for garnish

Instructions

  1. Place your chicken pieces in a medium bowl and marinate them in the milk for 20 to 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. While the chicken marinates, prep your vegetables and gather all other ingredients.
  4. In an extra-large bowl, toss the sliced vegetables, drained chicken, seasonings, breadcrumb, pecorino, and olive oil until everything is coated.
  5. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet and spread it into a single layer. If the vegetables seem dry, add a little extra olive oil.
  6. Bake for 25 minutes.
  7. Remove the sheet pan from the oven, sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the top, and return it to the oven until the cheese melts.
  8. Garnish with chili pepper flakes and fresh basil before serving.

Notes

  • This recipe is easily adaptable; swap vegetables based on what you have available seasonally.
  • For easier cleanup, use foil instead of parchment paper, though parchment paper works well for preventing sticking.
