Ingredients
- 1.5 pound chicken breast (cut into 1-inch pieces)
- 1 pound green beans (trimmed)
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.75 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.625 teaspoon salt
- 0.375 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
- 1 pound cauliflower florets
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, toss the cut chicken breast pieces with 1 tablespoon olive oil, dried oregano, dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until evenly coated.
- In another bowl, toss the trimmed green beans and fresh cauliflower florets with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper.
- Spread the seasoned chicken pieces and vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure there is some space between items for even cooking.
