I think we can agree that weeknights are often hectic. Once the boys get home from school, I go into overdrive. I can look at the clock at 4pm and then next thing I know, it’s after 9pm! Getting the boys to their activities, making dinner and helping with homework can eat up a huge chunk of my day. That’s why I love finding meals that require little to no effort. Multitasking is the only way that I can survive most nights, so being able to throw dinner in the oven is a necessity some nights!

This recipe for Italian Marinated Roasted Chicken is a fabulous meal for a busy weeknight. You simply marinate your chicken, chop a few veggies and toss it all in the oven. Cook up some zucchini at the last minute for a full meal that tastes great but doesn’t eat up all your time!

Plus, it’s made with Wish-Bone® dressing so you know it’s packed with great flavor. This recipe uses Wish-Bone’s E.V.O.O. Lemon Herb Dressing. You get a fresh, tangy taste that pairs perfectly with the chicken and veggies. My  guys love the taste and I am thrilled being able to whip up dinner with hardly any effort.
