Cooking Steps
Preheat the oven to 450°F (to bake chicken). Start prepping when the oven comes up to temperature!
Wash and dry all produce.* In a large pot, add 12 cups water and 2 tsp salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Meanwhile, peel carrots. Using a box grater, coarsely grate peeled carrots. Coarsely grate zucchini. Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
Pat chicken dry with paper towel, then cut into 1-inch pieces. On a baking sheet, toss chicken with half the Italian seasoning and 1 tbsp oil. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange chicken in a single layer. Bake in middle of oven, until cooked through, 14-16 min. (TIP: Cook to a min. internal temp. of 74°C/165°F, as size may vary.**)
Meanwhile, to boiling water, add penne. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min. When penne is tender, drain. Return to the same pot, off heat. Set aside.
Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp oil, then carrots, grated zucchini, garlic and remaining Italian seasoning. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until veggies soften, 5-6 min. Add tomatoes and 1/2 tsp sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, 3-4 min. Season with salt and pepper.
To the large pan with veggie-tomato sauce, add penne and chicken. Toss to combine
Divide chicken and penne marinara between bowls. Sprinkle over Parmesan.
