Ingredients

Scale
  • 1½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 medium zucchini, sliced into half-moons
  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Zest and juice of 1 lemon
  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
  2. Pat chicken thighs dry and cut vegetables into similar-sized pieces for even cooking.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk olive oil, garlic, oregano, paprika, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, and lemon zest.
  4. Add chicken and vegetables to the bowl and toss well to coat.
  5. Spread everything in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan, avoiding overcrowding.
  6. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) and veggies are tender and lightly charred. Broil for 2 minutes if desired.
  7. Remove from oven, squeeze lemon juice over the dish, and sprinkle with feta and parsley.
  8. Let rest for 5 minutes and serve warm.

Notes

Swap chicken for salmon or chickpeas to suit dietary preferences. Double the recipe for meal prep — it reheats beautifully!
