Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, oregano, thyme, ¼ tsp salt, and cayenne pepper. Set aside.
  3. Remove the stem and seeds from the bell peppers. Cut them into ½ inch thick strips. Cut the strips into ½ inch long pieces. Put the peppers in a glass 9x13 baking dish.
  4. Peel the turnip, and cut it into ¼ inch thick slices. Cut the slices into 1 inch pieces. Add the turnip to the baking dish.
  5. Drizzle 1 Tbsp oil and 1/8 tsp salt over the veggies. Stir with a fork or toss with your hands until the veggies are evenly coated in oil.

  7. Add 1 Tbsp oil to the spice mixture. Stir. Spread or rub the spice blend into the chicken. Make sure to season both sides.
