Equipment

  • Large Sheet Pan
  • mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Plastic Bag

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can Cooking spray or line with parchment paper
  • 6 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • ½ cup zesty Italian dressing fat free is great
  • 1 ¼ pounds chicken tenderloins or breasts
  • 2 heads broccoli
  • 1 cup baby carrots
  • ½ pint cherry tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Fresh parsley optional
  • Salt optional
  • Pepper optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray a large sheet pan with cooking spray (line with parchment paper if you tray isn’t nonstick, or the balsamic and Italian mixture will stick to it) and set aside.
  • Whisk together the balsamic vinegar and zesty Italian dressing.
  • Trim the tenderloins of fat and undesired parts. Alternatively cut the breasts into small ¼ to ½-inch thick pieces (resemble the size of the tenders in the picture/video).
  • Place ⅓ cup of the balsamic/Italian mixture in a large bag and add the chicken tenders. Coat and place in the fridge to marinate for at least 30 minutes and up to 6 hours.
  • Chop the broccoli into small pieces. Slice the baby carrots in half.
  • Place broccoli and carrots on the prepared tray with the cherry tomatoes, Italian seasoning, olive oil, garlic powder, and add some seasoned salt and pepper to taste.
  • Roast the veggies for 10–15 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and flip around. Section the veggies to each side of the tray and place the chicken tenders (discard marinade) in the center. Brush ⅓ cup of the balsamic/Italian mixture over the chicken.
  • Return to the oven and cook another 7–15 minutes depending on the size of your chicken. Be careful to monitor the chicken so you don’t overcook it.
  • Serve the chicken and veggies with the remaining balsamic/Italian mixture. Top with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
  • Great served over rice or quinoa!

Notes

Total time does not include marinating time. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warm.
