Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine chicken breasts, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and garlic. Drizzle with olive oil and seasonings, then toss to coat.
  3. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, then sprinkle mozzarella and parmesan cheese over the top.
  4. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  5. Let the bake cool for a few minutes, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm.

Notes

Use fresh vegetables for the best flavor and avoid overcrowding the baking dish for even cooking.
