Units
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 zucchini, sliced
- 1 red onion, sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional, for garnish)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or foil.
- In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Place chicken breasts or thighs in the bowl with the marinade and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 1 hour in the fridge.
- While the chicken marinates, prepare the vegetables. Arrange the sliced bell pepper, zucchini, red onion, and cherry tomatoes on the sheet pan.
- Once the chicken is ready, place it on the sheet pan with the vegetables. Add the Kalamata olives around the chicken and veggies.
- Roast for 25–30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the vegetables are tender.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese and chopped parsley, if desired.
- Serve hot with a side of rice, quinoa, or pita bread.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can marinate the chicken overnight for more intense seasoning.
- Feel free to swap in other Mediterranean veggies, such as eggplant or mushrooms.
- For a low-carb version, serve with a side of cauliflower rice or a green salad.
