½ cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Simpli Spiced Curry Flair
1 tsp lemon zest (optional)
1 tsp salt
For the vegetables:
2-3 cups mixed vegetables (cauliflower, red onion, broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, zucchini, sweet potatoes)
2-3 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp Simpli Spiced Curry Flair
2 tsp salt
black pepper to taste
Garnish with fresh lemon or lime juice and cilantro
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Marinate the chicken: In a bowl, mix chicken with the marinade ingredients until well coated. Let sit for at least 20-30 minutes (up to overnight).
Prepare the vegetables: Toss vegetables of choice with olive oil, Curry Flair, salt/pepper.
Assemble the sheet pan: Line sheet pan with parchment paper. Spread vegetables evenly on a baking sheet. Add the marinated chicken, spacing everything out in a single layer.
Roast: Bake 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
Finish and serve: Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top and garnish with cilantro before serving.

Cooking Tips
Don’t overcrowd the pan: Give everything space so it roasts, not steams. Use two pans if needed.
Use thighs for juiciness: Chicken thighs stay tender and flavorful, but breast works too—just don’t overcook.
Coat well: Make sure everything is evenly coated with oil + Curry Flair for full flavor.
