Instructions

  • Cut the chicken. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces, and place in a large mixing bowl.

Notes

  • Note that liquid will accumulate in the bottom of the pan. That's normal and expected (and it helps to keep the chicken moist while cooking). Simply use a slotted spoon to scoop out the chicken and veggies. Though if I'm serving this bake on top of rice or lentils, I love to drizzle some of those extra juices on top!
