2 medium yellow squash, halved crosswise

2 medium zucchini, halved crosswise

1 medium yellow onion, quartered (about 1 cup)

1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded, and quartered

1 clove garlic, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon paprika

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

Chicken:

1 (4-pound) chicken, cut into 8 pieces

1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions

Special equipment:
1 large roasting pan
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Lightly coat the roasting pan with vegetable spray.
  3. Make the Vegetables: Toss all of the ingredients in a large bowl, and arrange them in the roasting pan, leaving room in the center for the chicken.
  4. Prepare the Chicken: Nestle the chicken pieces in the center of the pan. Combine the remaining ingredients and sprinkle evenly over the chicken. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour.

Very easy and good. Loved the zucchini. Squash was overdone though. Will leave out next time.
