RECIPE NOTES
- Be sure to use a pan large enough so that you can really spread the veggies out. If they become too stacked, they will not cook evenly.
- Feel free to experiment with herbs for seasoning! I love the basic olive oil, salt & pepper and parsley combo, but adding others would be great, as well.
- The most accurate way to determine if chicken is done cooking is by using a Thermapen. (<—-affiliate link) Insert the thermometer into the center and look for a reading of 165 degrees F.
FAQ ABOUT ROASTED CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES
Place cooked chicken and vegetables in a Ziploc freezer bag after it has fully cooled. Freeze for up to 3 months.
