Roasted Chicken Breast with Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 (4 ounce) skinless chicken breasts

1 large yellow bell pepper, seeded, ribs removed, and chopped (about 8 ounces)

1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs

Salt and pepper to taste

 

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400ºF. In a large bowl, mix 1 tablespoon oil with the chicken and transfer to a roasting pan. Toss the remaining 1 tablespoon oil with the sweet potatoes, bell pepper, and zucchini. Transfer to the roasting pan arranging them around the chicken breasts.

Remove from the oven, season lightly with salt, and serve immediately.
