Scale
Here’s what you’ll need to create this delightful dish:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon honey

Feel free to swap out veggies based on what you have on hand. Carrots or broccoli work beautifully too!
Instructions
Let’s get cooking! Here’s how to bring this dish to life:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, honey, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper.
- Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the balsamic marinade over the chicken, coating each piece evenly. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours in the fridge for more flavor.
- Arrange the marinated chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Surround with cherry tomatoes, red onion, bell pepper, and zucchini.
- Drizzle any remaining marinade over the vegetables and chicken. Give everything a little toss to ensure even coating.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the veggies are tender.
- For a caramelized finish, switch your oven to broil for the last 2-3 minutes.
- Remove from oven, let it rest for a few minutes, then serve warm.
Pro tip: If you have little helpers around, like my kids, they love tossing the veggies in the marinade. It’s messy fun, but worth it!
