Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts in a plastic freezer bag or casserole dish. Combine the remaining ingredients and pour over the chicken. Marinate for several hours, or overnight.
- When ready to cook, line half of your grill with heavy aluminum foil. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Spray both sides with cooking spray. Combine all of the chopped vegetables, along with the garlic in a bowl or plastic bag and add the olive oil and herbs; season with salt and pepper.
