Mediterranean style chicken

To make my life a little easier I used a disposable aluminum pan for this meal.   

You can adjust amounts of seasonings to you taste.

We like lemon so I did use a whole lemon.  It complimented this recipe.

1lb.  Boneless chicken breasts cut into medium pieces

6 to 8 Red potatoes ( cut in halves ) ( boil for a few minutes)

1 Red pepper julienned ( you may use any color or even variegated peppers for color.

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 tsp.  Garlic powder 

1/2 tsp. Onion powder

1/2 tsp. Dried Basil 

1/2 tsp.  Dried Parsley 

1 medium Fresh lemon( squeeze juice) plus zest of lemon

1/2 cup Olive oil

1/2 tsp. Oregano (optional)

• Combine olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, basil, parsley ,salt, and black pepper in a bowl.  Place chicken breasts into a 9x13-inch baking dish or as I did an aluminum pan about the same size.  Brush lemon juice mixture over chicken.

• ***Note:to speed up cooking time I partially cooked my potatoes. 
  

  Place potatoes, red bell pepper strips, spices, and lemon slices in a bowl, pour remaining lemon juice mixture over vegetables, and toss to coat. Arrange vegetables and lemon slices around chicken breasts in baking dish.

• Bake 400 degrees in the preheated oven for 30 minutes; with a large spoon move chicken and vegetables through  pan drippings. Continue baking until chicken is browned, the juices run clear.  Approximately 10 to 15 minutes more. 

Enjoy!
