Ingredients

Scale
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 24 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breasts (4 (6-ounce) pieces)
  • 1.5 pounds yellow potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt (plus more to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (plus more to taste)
  • 4 small zucchinis, sliced into 1-inch pieces

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together the fresh lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Prepare the Potatoes: In a large pot, toss the yellow potatoes with one tablespoon of olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Cook the Chicken: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the marinated chicken in a baking dish and add the potatoes around them. Bake for about 25 minutes.
  4. Cook the Zucchini: While the chicken and potatoes are baking, sauté the zucchini in a skillet over medium-high heat for about 5–7 minutes.
  5. Assemble Meal Prep Containers: Once everything is cooked, divide the chicken, potatoes, and zucchini evenly into meal prep containers.

Notes

Marinate the chicken for a few hours or overnight for deeper flavor. Use glass containers for better storage.
