How to Make Baked Balsamic Chicken

Preheat oven to 425 degree F or 200 degree C.
Spray two large baking trays with cooking oil spray. If you don’t have cooking spray then use olive oil and coat the tray with it using your hands.
Ina large mixing bowl add all the ingredients for the balsamic sauce together using a fork.
Add the chicken and chopped vegetables into the balsamic mixture. Combine everything together using your hands, making sure the sauce coats everything evenly.
Lay the chicken and vegetables on the baking sheets. Make sure that the chicken and vegetable don’t touch or the moisture will turn the roast into a steam.
Put the baking trays into the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is pink on the inside and the veggies are tender and develop colour. Rotate the bottom pan to the top and versa, midway of baking.
Take the chicken and veggies out of the oven and serve hot.
