Chef's Tips

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or even overnight in the refrigerator.

Adjust the amount of vegetables to your liking. Eggplant and yellow squash are also great additions.

To ensure even cooking, cut the vegetables into similar sizes.

If the vegetables start to brown too quickly, you can loosely cover the baking sheet with aluminum foil.
