Make this easy Greek chicken dinner with bright lemon, salty feta, and tender vegetables all on one pan for simple cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into 1.5-inch pieces
  • 1 large red onion, cut into wedges
  • 2 bell peppers (any color), cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 lemon, thinly sliced for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
  3. Add the cut chicken, red onion wedges, bell pepper pieces, and cherry tomatoes to the bowl with the marinade. Toss everything gently until the chicken and vegetables are evenly coated.
  4. Spread the marinated chicken and vegetables in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Do not overcrowd the pan; use two sheets if necessary.
  5. Place the thin lemon slices evenly over the chicken and vegetables.
  6. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  7. Remove the pan from the oven. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the hot chicken and vegetables.
  8. Return the pan to the oven for 3 to 5 minutes, just until the feta softens slightly.
  9. Serve immediately. This Mediterranean chicken bake pairs well with rice or roasted potatoes.

Notes

  • For a more intense flavor, marinate the chicken mixture in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before baking.
  • If you prefer grilling, thread the marinated chicken and vegetables onto skewers and grill over medium-high heat until done, then top with feta.
  • Use chicken thighs for a moister result, or chicken breasts for a lower-fat option.
