For the chicken and vegetables

3 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and drumsticks (about 6–8 pieces)
Ingredient notes
Fresh poultry is naturally low in histamine, but histamine levels climb the longer it is stored. Buy very fresh or frozen poultry and cook it soon after. If you prefer to always avoid bone in skin on chicken thighs, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
Histamine levels rise the longer meat sits after butchering. Buy chicken as fresh as possible, ideally flash-frozen, and cook it promptly.
2 medium zucchini, cut into 1-inch half-moons
2 bell peppers (any color), cut into 1-inch pieces
Ingredient note
Sweet bell peppers contain none of the capsaicin that makes hot peppers a problem. If you prefer to always avoid bell pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
1 medium red onion, cut into 1-inch wedges

For serving

1 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, oregano, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using) until combined.
2
Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and turn to coat thoroughly. Let the chicken marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, or cover and refrigerate for up to 8 hours. Discard any marinade that has been in contact with the raw chicken — do not reuse it as a sauce.
