# How to Make:
01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a bowl, combine olive oil, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, fresh rosemary, fresh thyme, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Add chicken breasts and toss to coat thoroughly. Marinate for 15 minutes or up to 2 hours for enhanced flavor development.
03 - Arrange zucchini, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, red onion, and cherry tomatoes on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine and spread in a single layer.
04 - Place marinated chicken breasts on a separate baking sheet or nestle carefully among the vegetables if space permits on the same sheet.
05 - Roast in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and vegetables become tender with caramelized edges.
06 - In a medium saucepan, combine rice, water or broth, and salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, approximately 15 to 20 minutes for white rice or 35 to 40 minutes for brown rice.
07 - In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, fresh lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper until well emulsified.
08 - Divide cooked rice among serving bowls. Top each portion with roasted vegetables and sliced chicken breast. Drizzle with prepared lemon dressing and serve immediately.
