Description

A flavorful and nutritious meal showcasing chicken with vibrant vegetables and spices, perfect for a healthy dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika

  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

  2. In a bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

  5. Scatter the halved cherry tomatoes and spinach around the chicken in the dish.
  6. Squeeze the lemon juice over the entire dish.

  8. Remove the dish from the oven and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

Allow the chicken to marinate for maximum flavor. Adjust seasoning to your preference.
