Steps
1 Done | Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. |
2 Done | In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. |
3 Done | Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let the chicken marinate for at least 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse. |
4 Done | While the chicken is marinating, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). |
5 Done | Prepare your vegetables by washing and cutting them into bite-sized pieces. Arrange them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. |
6 Done | Drizzle the vegetables with a bit of olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat evenly. |
7 Done | Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the vegetables for about 20-25 minutes, or until they're tender and slightly caramelized. Be sure to give them a gentle stir halfway through. |
8 Done | As the vegetables are roasting, it's time to grill the chicken. Place the marinated chicken breasts on the preheated grill or grill pan and cook for approximately 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). |
9 Done | Once the chicken is cooked through, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. |
10 Done | Serve the grilled lemon herb chicken alongside the roasted vegetables, garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and enjoy! There you have it, a delightful and healthy grilled lemon herb chicken with roasted vegetables. Bon appétit! |
