All-in-one Mediterranean Chicken
I have a handful of 'go-to' dishes when I am stuck for ideas or if I have little time to prep for a meal and this 'All-in-one Mediterranean Chicken' meal is one of them. Super quick and easy to prepare and taste absolutely delicious too. You simply wash, chop and bung all the ingredients onto a tray and bake. I never get bored of this meal. The succulent juices from the chicken mixed up with the vegetables at the bottom - just delicious!
