  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 ½ pounds yellow potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt (plus more to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (plus more to taste)
  • 4 small zucchinis, sliced into 1-inch pieces

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add chicken and coat thoroughly. Marinate 20 minutes up to 24 hours.
  2. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread potato pieces, drizzle with olive oil, season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Bake 30 minutes, stirring halfway.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess. Cook 7–8 minutes per side until golden and internal temp reaches 165°F. Rest 5 minutes, then slice.
  4. Add zucchini to remaining marinade and cook in the same skillet over high heat 5–7 minutes until softened and lightly browned. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Divide sliced chicken, roasted potatoes, and zucchini into four meal prep containers. Cool before sealing for storage.

Notes
