Step 1
1. Chop your chicken breasts into cubes and place in a bowl. Mix in 1/4 cup greek yogurt, 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, lemon pepper, smoked paprika, and dill weed to taste. Stir until all cubes are fully covered and marinate in the fridge for 30 mins.
Step 2
2. Preheat the oven to 450F. Chop your bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion into thin slices. Place on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil, lemon pepper, and dill weed. Place vegetables in the oven once heated for 20 minutes.
