Ingredients
Scale
- ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 4 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 ½ 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
- Whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl. Add chicken breasts and marinate for 20 minutes to 24 hours.

- Sauté zucchini in remaining marinade in the same skillet for 5-7 minutes until softened. Season to taste.
- Assemble meal prep by dividing chicken, potatoes, and zucchini into containers. Allow to cool before sealing.
Notes
