Seasoning Ingredients:
 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

 2 tsp cumin
 1 tsp garlic powder
 ¾ tsp salt

 

1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a large rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.

Combine seasoning ingredients in a large bowl. Add the chicken and stir to coat with the spice mixture. Add bell peppers and onion and stir to combine. Transfer the chicken and vegetables to the prepared baking sheet and spread in an even layer.
