Easy chicken and roasted veggie dinner that cooks all in one pan. Italian herbs, grated cheese and tart lemon make this a taste sensation.

I was intrigued by this recipe when I saw it floating around my Facebook groups.  Truthfully, the recipe I saw sounded bland and the only flavor seemed to be lemon.

Where lemon does add some flavor, it appeared flat, so I decided to add some nice Italian herbs and parmesan cheese into the mix. I thought that would give this recipe a kick and lots of flavor. It would also add so much to the veggies as well.

I have to say I wasn’t too crazy about turning on the oven since we’re experiencing our usual September heat wave here in upstate New York, but I thought this one, with my adjustments, would be worth it. I wasn’t wrong! This is very VERY good.

Despite cooking close to one hour, the boneless skinless breasts were not dry–they were tender and juicy. The next time I’m going to try this with chicken thighs. I think that would be even more flavorful.

These breast portions were very large, therefore I made only two. Half of one of these breast portions is a generous serving, but if you have smaller portions, then to serve four you would have to use four chicken breasts.
