- 1.5 cup sliced zucchini, half-moons
- 1.5 cup cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 cup pitted Kalamata olives
- 3.5 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice

Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Lightly oil a large rimmed sheet pan.
- Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, zest, garlic, oregano, thyme, paprika, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
- Coat chicken with about half the marinade. Let it stand 10 minutes.
- Toss potatoes with a few spoonfuls of marinade. Spread on the pan.
- Roast potatoes 10 minutes to jump-start browning.
- Combine onion, bell pepper, and zucchini with remaining marinade. Add to the pan with the chicken.
- Roast 15 minutes, then scatter tomatoes and olives around everything.
- Continue roasting 8–10 minutes, until chicken hits 165°F and potatoes are tender.
- Rest 5 minutes. Top with feta and parsley. Serve warm with extra lemon.
Notes
Try swapping zucchini for eggplant or add a pinch of cinnamon to the spice mix for warmth. Leftovers keep well refrigerated up to 3 days; reheat on a hot skillet to crisp edges.
