Baked Chicken and Garden Vegetables. Vegetables from the garden seasoned and baked in extra virgin olive oil with chicken.

Invent Your Recipe:
For this recipe, Baked Chicken and Garden Vegetables, I picked eggplant, carrots, green beans, and cherry tomatoes because that is what I harvested fresh from my vegetable garden the day I cooked this recipe. This recipe can work with all kinds or vegetables, including, potatoes, asparagus, Brussel sprouts, and butternut squash, to name a few.
I suggest serving this dish over rice, which is the way I ate it. However, the chicken and vegetables can stand alone as the main event without any other side dishes.
For the seasoning I decided to use garlic powder instead of fresh garlic. No reason in particular, maybe I just did not feel like peeling the garlic. Either way, fresh or dried garlic works well for flavor. I enjoy the color of paprika and the flavor or oregano, however, they are not needed to make this a tasty dish. Use whichever seasoning you prefer. Even try some spice to change the experience of this dish altogether.
