Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 large Red bell pepper (chopped)
  • 1 large Yellow bell pepper (chopped)
  • 1 large Zucchini (sliced)
  • 1 medium Red onion (wedges)
  • 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
  • 1/3 cup Kalamata olives (pitted)
  • 1/2 cup Feta cheese (crumbled)
  • 1/3 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/4 cup Fresh lemon juice
  • 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 1 tbsp Dried oregano
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
  3. Toss chicken thighs with 2/3 of the marinade in a bowl. Let sit for 15 minutes.
  4. Place chopped peppers, zucchini, onion, and tomatoes on the sheet pan. Toss with remaining marinade.
  5. Arrange chicken thighs on the pan nestled among the vegetables in a single layer.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes.
  7. Remove pan, toss veggies gently, and scatter olives and crumbled feta over the top.
  8. Bake for another 10-15 minutes until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are roasted.
  9. Garnish with parsley and serve.

Notes

  • Chicken: Thighs remain juicier than breasts at high heat. If using breasts, cut into chunks to prevent drying out.
  • Vegetables: Cut veggies into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking.
  • Feta: Buy a block of feta and crumble it yourself for the best texture.
  • Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
