What You’ll Need For Italian Chicken
Chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are ideal for this recipe. You can also substitute with chicken thighs or drumsticks.
Potatoes: I use baby potatoes cut in half. You can also use larger potatoes cut into 1-inch chunks. There is no need to peel the tomatoes.
Vegetables: Zucchini, cherry tomatoes, and red peppers add color and flavor. Feel free to add other veggies like sliced mushrooms or broccoli.
Marinade: A mix of Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, and Italian dressing mix creates a flavorful marinade.
Seasonings: Olive oil, Parmesan, salt, and pepper give the dish so much flavor!
Variations
- Replace the chicken with Italian sausage, shrimp, or pork tenderloin.
- Add different herbs and seasonings like fresh parsley, oregano, basil, or thyme.
