- 1 lb small red or yellow potatoes quartered
- 1 head broccoli cut into florets
- 2 medium carrots peeled and sliced into rounds
Seasoning
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder

- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt or to taste
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper or to taste

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a very large bowl, combine the chicken pieces, quartered potatoes, broccoli florets, and sliced carrots.
Seasoning & Roasting
- Drizzle olive oil over the chicken and vegetables, then sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
- Toss all ingredients until well coated with oil and seasonings.
- Spread the seasoned chicken and vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring not to overcrowd it.
- Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) and vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized; gently shake or stir halfway through.
Serving
- Remove from the oven and, if desired, sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
For crispier vegetables, ensure the baking sheet is not overcrowded. If you prefer a richer flavor, consider marinating the chicken for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
