- Preheat your oven to 425F and have a 9"x13" inch baking pan ready.
- Place a large frying pan on medium-high heat. Drizzle the olive oil in the pan and add the chopped onion, carrot, and bell pepper. Sprinkle in the chili powder, salt, and garlic powder into the veggies. Cook until the onions are translucent.
- Add the cubed up chicken breast to the veggies in the pan. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink on the outside.
