Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 4 pieces chicken breasts Thighs can be used for a juicier option.
  • 1 cup grated parmesan cheese The star of the show.
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil For that golden, crispy finish.
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning Or your favorite herb blend.
  • Salt and pepper To taste.
  • Fresh parsley For garnishing (optional).
For the Vegetables
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables Zucchini, bell peppers, and carrots work beautifully.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and place them on a baking sheet.
  3. Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken and sprinkle with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, rubbing the seasonings evenly.
  4. Generously sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the chicken for an even coverage.
  5. Scatter the mixed vegetables around the chicken on the same baking sheet. Drizzle them lightly with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
Cooking
  1. Place the sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is golden and bubbly.
  2. Let it rest for a few minutes before garnishing with freshly chopped parsley.
