Whomever posted the recipe named "chicken bake roma" is a GENIOUS! I copied it a couple of weeks ago and made it tonight. It was one of the best (and easiest) dishes I have ever made, and under 200 calories per serving.

Serves 6

3lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper
3 medium zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch chunks (about 4 cups)
2-3 cups halved (or sliced) mushrooms
1 can (28oz) whole, peeled tomatoes, coarsly chopped (I just used diced tomatoes, it was easier)
1 medium onion, chopped (about 1 cup)
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2tsp dried basil
1 bay leaf


1. Preheat oven to 425F, rub both sides of chicken with salt and pepper. Place in roasting pan. Bake chicken for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temp to 350F
2. meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine zucchini, mushrooms, tomatoes, onion, garlic, basil and bay leaf
3. Spoon veg mixture evenly over chicken. Cover pan with foil and bake for 35 minutes. Uncover pan and bake until chicken is golden and no longer pink, about 40 minutes longer.
Remove bay leaf and serve

**When I cut the recipe in 1/2 I found that the cooking time dried out my chicken so be cautious. it was still good, just not as juicy as I felt it should have been.
