Mediterranean Herbed Chicken & Roasted Vegetable Bowls ingredients

• 1.5 lbs Chicken Breast
• 1 medium Eggplant
• 1 large Bell Pepper
• 2 medium Tomato
• 1 medium Onion
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 3 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 tsp Dried oregano
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1/2 tsp Black pepper
• 1/2 Lemon
• 2 tbsp Fresh Dill weed (chopped)
• 2 tbsp Fresh Mint (chopped)
• 4 cups Lettuce (Iceberg, shredded)

How to make Mediterranean Herbed Chicken & Roasted Vegetable Bowls

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Cut the 1.5 lbs chicken breast into 1-inch cubes. Cut the 1 medium eggplant, 1 large bell pepper, and 1 medium onion into 1-inch pieces. Cut the 2 medium tomatoes into wedges. Thinly slice or mince 3 cloves of garlic.
3. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, eggplant, bell pepper, tomatoes, onion, and garlic. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Toss well to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated.
4. Spread the seasoned chicken and vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure there is some space between the pieces for optimal roasting.
5. Roast for 25-30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature 165°F/74°C) and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized at the edges.
6. While the chicken and vegetables are roasting, prepare a simple dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the juice of 1/2 lemon, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
7. Once the chicken and vegetables are out of the oven, transfer them to a clean bowl. Stir in 2 tablespoons of fresh chopped dill weed and 2 tablespoons of fresh chopped mint, then drizzle with the prepared lemon-olive oil dressing. Toss gently.
8. To serve, divide 4 cups of shredded Iceberg lettuce among four bowls. Spoon the warm herbed chicken and roasted vegetable mixture over the lettuce. Serve immediately for a flavorful and satisfying lunch.
