Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with olive oil.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken cut into bite-sized pieces, sliced zucchinis, and coarsely chopped onion. Stir until well incorporated.
- Drizzle the mixture with olive oil and sprinkle in minced garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss well.
- For better texture, salt the zucchini slices in a colander for 15 minutes, then pat dry with paper towels.
- Spread the chicken and zucchini mixture evenly in the baking dish, arranging in a single layer.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, checking at 20 minutes to ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- For a crispy top, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
- Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro or parsley before serving. Let rest for 5 minutes.

Notes
For best results, ensure chicken pieces are uniform in size and don’t overcrowd the baking dish.
