Grilled Chicken with Veggies
This grilled chicken with veggies recipe is perfect for a cozy evening. It’s simple to whip up and packed with flavors that will make your taste buds dance. Let’s gather our ingredients and get cooking!
### Ingredients:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 zucchini, sliced
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (like rosemary or thyme) for garnish
Instructions:
- Start by marinating the chicken. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts and ensure they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes for the best flavor.
- While the chicken is marinating, prepare your vegetables. Toss the sliced bell pepper, zucchini, and onion in a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- Heat your stovetop grilling pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken breasts. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F. Remove them from the pan and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- In the same pan, add the prepared vegetables. Grill them for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and have nice grill marks.
- To serve, place the sliced grilled chicken on a platter and arrange the vibrant veggies alongside it. Garnish with fresh herbs for an extra pop of flavor.
