Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
  • 3 medium zucchinis, sliced into rounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  4. Spread the mixture evenly in a 9×13-inch baking dish.
