Step 1

Preheat the Oven: Set the oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it's preheated before adding the chicken and vegetables.

Step 2

Cut the Chicken: Dice the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. This ensures even cooking and allows the chicken to absorb the flavors effectively.

Step 3

Prepare the Vegetables: Slice the red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, red onion, and zucchini into thin slices. Uniform slicing ensures even roasting and a visually appealing presentation.

Step 4

Season the Chicken: In a large bowl, combine the chicken pieces with olive oil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat the chicken evenly with the seasonings.

Step 5

Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned chicken and sliced vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet. Ensure the ingredients are not overcrowded to allow for proper air circulation and even cooking.

Step 6

Bake the Chicken and Vegetables: Place the baking sheet with the chicken and vegetables in the preheated oven. Roast for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender-crisp.

Step 7

Check for Doneness: After 20 minutes, check the internal temperature of the chicken using a meat thermometer. It should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure it's fully cooked.

Step 8

Monitor Vegetables: Observe the vegetables during the last 5 minutes of cooking. They should be slightly caramelized around the edges and still retain a slight crunch.

Step 9

Remove from Oven: Once the chicken and vegetables are cooked through, remove the baking sheet from the oven.

Step 10

Serve immediately.
