Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Slice the cherry tomatoes in half.
- Thinly slice the onion.
- Mince the garlic.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, sliced onion, and minced garlic.
- Drizzle 1 teaspoon of olive oil over the vegetables.
- Sprinkle the rosemary, dried oregano, fresh thyme, red pepper flakes, a dash of salt, and a dash of black pepper.
- Toss the vegetables to ensure they are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
- Spread the seasoned vegetables on a baking sheet in a single layer.
- Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the tomatoes are soft and slightly caramelized, and the onions are golden brown.
- While the vegetables are roasting, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season the chicken breasts with a dash of salt and black pepper.
- Place the chicken breasts in the hot skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C).
- Once the vegetables are roasted and the chicken is cooked, add the roasted vegetables to the skillet with the chicken.
- Stir gently to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes so the flavors meld together.
- Remove from heat and sprinkle the chopped fresh basil over the top.
- Serve the chicken breasts topped with the roasted tomato and red onion mixture.
- Enjoy your flavorful and healthy meal!
Tips:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure even roasting of the tomatoes and onions.
- Make sure to spread the cherry tomatoes and onion slices evenly on the baking sheet for optimal roasting.
- You can prepare the garlic by crushing it slightly before roasting to enhance its flavor.
- Keep an eye on the tomatoes and onions while they roast to prevent burning; they should be slightly caramelized and tender.
- For extra flavor, marinate the chicken breasts in olive oil, salt, pepper, and herbs for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- Use a meat thermometer to check if the chicken is fully cooked; it should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Feel free to add different herbs or spices according to your taste preference, such as thyme or paprika.
