Preparation
Mise en place
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Roughly chop the parsley leaves and stems. Halve the lemon; juice ½ and quarter the remaining ½. Quarter the zucchini lengthwise; halve crosswise. Thinly slice the roasted peppers lengthwise.
Roast the zucchini
On a lined sheet pan, toss the zucchini with a drizzle of oil, ⅓ of the spices and S&P. Roast, flipping halfway, 12 to 14 min., until browned and tender.
Cook the chicken
Meanwhile, pat the chicken dry with paper towel; season with the remaining spices and S&P. In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the chicken* and cook, partially covered, 6 to 8 min. per side, until cooked through. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 min. before slicing against the grain.
Make the salad
In a medium bowl, combine the zucchini, roasted peppers, parsley, garlic, lemon juice, 1 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions) and S&P.
Plate your dish
Divide the tzatziki between your plates and spread out in a circular motion. Top with the chicken and salad. Garnish with the lemon wedges. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking poultry to a minimum internal temperature of 74°C.
