Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and rosemary. Set aside.
In a bowl, toss baby potatoes and carrots with olive oil, garlic powder, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet.
Roast potatoes and carrots for 25 minutes.
After 25 minutes, add broccoli florets to the tray and place the seasoned chicken on another part of the tray. Continue roasting for 20 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
Meanwhile, heat a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Sauté zucchini slices for 3-4 minutes per side until golden. Season with salt and pepper.

Slice or shred the roasted chicken and serve with the vegetables. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
