Squeaky Clean Chicken & Veggie Bake
This Squeaky-Clean Chicken & Veggie Bake is my go-to when I want a no-fuss but highly nutritious dinner on the table. It’s also a great way to use up those last vegetables in your veggie drawer at the end of the week!
Servings: 4 to 5 servings
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds chicken strips
- 2 sweet potatoes cut into 1/2"-thick discs
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1 yellow bell pepper cut into 1/2" strips
- 1/2 purple onion cut into 1/4"-thick discs
- 1/2 pound fresh green beans
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Italian Seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Place the chicken and vegetables in a large mixing bowl.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, and spices. Pour the dressing over the chicken and veggies and toss to combine.
- Pour the seasoned chicken and vegetables into a large casserole dish. Bake at 375 F for 45 minutes to one hour, or until the sweet potatoes are cooked through (easily pierced with a fork). If the vegetables on the top start to brown too quickly, simply place a sheet of foil over the top for the duration of the cooking time.
- Once finished, let cool a bit, garnish with the optional parsley, and enjoy!
