Description

Easy one-dish chicken dinner baked on a sheet pan with broccoli and tomatoes.

Ingredients

2 pounds boneless chicken breasts
2 teaspoons garlic salt
1 pinch ground black pepper, or to taste
6 tablespoons pesto
2 Roma (plum) tomatoes, thinly sliced
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 head broccoli, cut into florets
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt to taste

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease a large rimmed baking sheet.
2. Place chicken on the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with garlic salt and black pepper. Spread pesto over chicken and top with tomatoes and cheese.
3. Toss broccoli and oil together in a bowl. Place broccoli around chicken on the baking sheet. Sprinkle salt and pepper on top.
4. Bake in the preheated oven until broccoli is tender and chicken is no longer pink in the center, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
