Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and half of the fresh herbs. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well. Let marinate for at least 20 minutes.

Sauté the Vegetables
In a separate pan, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped seasonal vegetables and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender but still crisp. Season with salt, pepper, and remaining herbs.
