One Pan Balsamic Chicken and Veggies
Say hello to one of the EASIEST dinners ever: ONE PAN Balsamic Chicken and Veggies. It’s low on prep time, has few ingredients, and is huge on flavor (while conveniently being super healthy)! There’s a 2-ingredient balsamic glaze which triples as first: a marinade, second: a sauce for cooking, and third: a dipping sauce. This is how I think every dinner should be made ?. Whisk two ingredients together and use that base three times.

Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a large tray with nonstick spray (line with parchment paper if you tray isn’t already nonstick or the balsamic + Italian mixture will stick to it) and set aside.
Step 2
Whisk together the balsamic vinegar and zesty Italian dressing.
Step 3
Trim the tenderloins of fat and undesired parts. Alternatively cut the breasts into small 1/4-1/2 inch thick pieces (resemble the size of the tenders in the picture/video)
Step 4
Place 1/3 cup of the balsamic + Italian mixture in a large bag and add the chicken tenders. Coat and place in the fridge to marinate for at least 30 minutes and up to 6 hours.
Step 5
Serve taco mixture inside tortillas, topped with coriander, avocado and fresh squeezed lime.Chop the broccoli into small pieces. Slice the baby carrots in half.
Step 6
Place broccoli + carrots on the prepared tray with the cherry tomatoes (like your tomatoes LESS roasted? Toss in after 5-10 minutes of the broccoli and carrots being cooked. Otherwise they are ultra tender!), Italian seasoning, olive oil, garlic powder, and add some seasoned salt and pepper to taste.
Step 7
Roast the veggies for 10-15 minutes.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and flip around. Section the veggies to each side of the tray (see video) and place the chicken tenders (discard marinade) in the center. Brush 1/3 cup of the balsamic + Italian mixture over the chicken.
Step 9
Step 10
Serve the chicken and veggies with the remaining Balsamic + Italian mixture. Top with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
Step 10
Great served over rice or quinoa!
