Oven-Roasted Chicken with Citrus-Rosemary Zucchini

Makes:
4 servings

Nutrition per serving:
Calories = 328; Total Fat = 11 g; Cholesterol = 89 mg; Sodium = 502 mg; Carbohydrate = 4 g; Fiber = 2 g; Protein = 51 g

Ingredients
1 tablespoon dried rosemary, chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 zucchini, sliced 1/2-inch thick on the diagonal
2 yellow squash, sliced 1/2-inch thick on the diagonal
1/2 red onion, sliced 1/2-inch thick
4 bone-in, skinless chicken breast halves, cut in half crosswise
1/4 cup thinly sliced basil
sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Directions
Place the rosemary, garlic, and oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Heat the oil until you see bubbles forming around the edges of the garlic, then remove from the heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes. Whisk the lemon juice, salt, and pepper into the rosemary oil.

Preheat the oven to 450F. Place the zucchini, squash, and onions on a baking sheet and toss with 2 tablespoons of the reserved rosemary vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper, then set aside. Place the chicken breast on a separate baking sheet and brush with the rosemary vinaigrette. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Roast the chicken until no longer pink in the middle, about 15 minutes, basting the chicken as it cooks and stopping the basting process 5 minutes before removing the chicken from the oven. Discard the vinaigrette after the chicken no longer needs basting.

Ten minutes after the chicken has been placed in the oven, place the zucchini mixture in the oven as well and roast until tender and lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Serve the zucchini alongside the chicken and enjoy.

Ingredients
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
