How to Make the Recipe

Now, let’s get cooking! Follow these simple steps to create your delicious roasted chicken and vegetables:

1. Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F.
2. Add the chicken and vegetables to a large mixing bowl.
3. In a separate small mixing bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
4. Pour the oil over the veggies and chicken, tossing to coat everything evenly. Then, sprinkle the spice blend over the mixture and toss well to ensure everything is coated.
5. Spray the air fryer basket with olive oil spray. Working in batches, add half of the chicken and vegetable mixture to the bottom of the air fryer basket in an even layer. It’s okay if some of the chicken and veggies overlap.
6. Close the air fryer and cook for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time. You’ll know the chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
7. Remove and serve hot, topped with dried or fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon if desired.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some helpful suggestions to ensure your dish turns out perfectly:

• Feel free to mix and match your favorite vegetables! Broccoli, carrots, or asparagus would work wonderfully.
• If you’re short on time, you can prep the chicken and veggies ahead of time and store them in the fridge until you’re ready to cook.
• For an extra kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the spice mix.
• Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket; cooking in batches ensures even cooking.

How to Serve

This roasted chicken and vegetables dish is perfect on its own, but you can also serve it with:

• A side of quinoa or brown rice for a heartier meal.
• Fresh salad greens drizzled with a light vinaigrette.
• For a comforting twist, pair it with creamy garlic pasta or any of your favorite easy pasta recipes.

Make Ahead and Storage

If you want to make this dish ahead of time, you can prep the chicken and vegetables and store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. When you’re ready to cook, just follow the steps above! Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in the air fryer or microwave. This makes it a fantastic option for 30-minute meals throughout the week!
