Mix 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon thyme, 1/2 teaspoon rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a bowl.

Coat the chicken breasts with the seasoning mixture on all sides.

Place the coated chicken breasts on a roasting pan with a rack.

Preheat the oven to 400°F and bake the chicken for 10 to 15 minutes.

Prepare the vegetables by cutting 1 cup of baby potatoes in half, 1 cup of broccoli, 1/2 cup of carrots, and 1/2 cup of zucchini into pieces.

In a bowl, toss the vegetables with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste.

Spread the vegetables in a single layer on the same pan as the chicken.

Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 25 to 30 minutes, ensuring the chicken reaches an internal temperature of at least 165°F and the vegetables are tender.

After 30 minutes, check the chicken for juiciness and temperature, then let it cool briefly before plating.
