Description

A one-pan roasted chicken dish with Mediterranean flavors, featuring juicy chicken, caramelized vegetables, and zesty olives.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 Chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
  • 2 Bell peppers (any color)
  • 1 Zucchini
  • 1 Red onion
  • 3 tbsp Olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Lemon juice
  • 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 1 tsp Dried oregano
  • 1 tsp Dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup Kalamata olives
  • 1/2 cup Feta cheese

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken pieces well and let them sit for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Prep the veggies: While the chicken is marinating, chop the bell peppers, zucchini, and onion. Toss them in a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  3. Layer it up: Arrange the marinated chicken on a sheet pan. Surround it with the seasoned veggies and scatter olives. Sprinkle feta generously on top.
  4. Roast away: Pop the sheet pan in a preheated oven and roast for about 35 minutes, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  5. Serve: Pull it out, let it rest, and enjoy the medley of flavors!

Notes

For an extra touch, sprinkle fresh parsley and lemon zest before serving. Stores well in the fridge for up to three days.
