- Prepare the Chicken and Vegetables:
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced chicken, bell peppers, and onion. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat.

- Arrange on the Sheet Pan:
- Spread the chicken and vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan for even cooking.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, stirring halfway through.
