Lemon Chicken Bake
Lemon Chicken Bake
Ingredients:
2 1/2 Tbsp. lemon juice
1/2 tsp. pepper
3/4 tsp. salt
3-4 garlic cloves, pressed
1/4 cup oil (I used melted butter)
4 chicken breasts (I used frozen)
1 onion
2-3 carrots
1 large sweet potato
(other veggies of choice!)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Combine lemon juice, pepper, salt, garlic, and oil or butter in a bowl.
3. Cut up onion, carrots and sweet potato into wedges or chunks.
4. Baste chicken with a bit of the lemon mixture then pour the rest of the lemon mixture over the veggies and stir to coat.
5. Place chicken and veggies in a large pan and bake at 375 degrees for 45-60 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and veggies are tender.
*I think peppers, lemon wedges or zucchini would be great add-ins as well! I just used what I had in my kitchen and we were happy with the results!

*This just adds a touch of sweetness so feel free to add more honey or butter to your liking.
