Ingredients

• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound total)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
• 1 medium zucchini, sliced
• 1 small red onion, cut into wedges

How to Make Grilled Chicken with Roasted Vegetables

1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, heat it on the stove over medium-high heat.
2. In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of olive oil, garlic powder, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Brush this mixture over both sides of the chicken breasts.
3. In a separate bowl, toss the sliced bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
4. Place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes.
5. While the chicken is resting, spread the vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
6. Slice the grilled chicken and serve it over the roasted vegetables. Enjoy!

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure your grill is preheated for better searing and flavor.
• Let the chicken rest after grilling to keep it juicy.
• For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the olive oil mixture for at least 30 minutes before grilling.

Easy Variations

• Swap out the vegetables for seasonal favorites like asparagus or cherry tomatoes.
• Add a sprinkle of feta cheese or goat cheese on top for a creamy contrast.
• Spice things up with a dash of chili powder or cayenne pepper in the seasoning mix.

What to Serve With It

• Quinoa or couscous for a hearty side.
• A fresh green salad with a light vinaigrette.
• Garlic bread for a comforting touch.
• Rice pilaf for a filling addition.
