Simple Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken and Vegetables
This one pan dinner is a wholesome way to feed your family without creating a mountain of dishes.
recipesbynani.comWhen the week gets busy, I always turn to this reliable one pan meal. It is a wonderful way to get protein and fresh vegetables on the table in one go, and the clean up is truly a breeze.
My favorite thing about this recipe is how the juices from the chicken flavor the potatoes as they roast together. Feel free to swap the vegetables based on what you have in your fridge that day.
